 One good looking HD if you're into that. January 7, 2009
C. Conley
Lacie makes the best looking drives. Its the apple of HD enclosers, you pay a little bit extra, but if its out in the open I think its worth it.

I needed a external flash drive because i Do a lot of photography work. So I needed a high enough tb to do my work. I came across this one and it was perfect for not too much money. So I bought it. and everything went smoothly. I got it when I was supposed to and it was exactly what I ordered.
Extreme Ease January 7, 2009
Mark Andersen (Kenosha, WI)
Unboxed, hooked up to an intel Imac setup took less than a minute, worked flawless and has run now using Bootcamp for the past month not a single hickup. Awesome product, looks great! My stainless steel desk looks even better now!
Beautiful and Functional! January 7, 2009
J. Naeve (Murphy, TX USA)
I purchased this hard drive based on the reviews I saw on Amazon and from some of the other Mac sites. I'm a Mac user and needed a large external hard drive for my iTunes store for Apple TV. This took care of my challenge nicely. The design of the drive enclosure is spectacular, I can't say it any other way. LaCie and Neil Poulton did a fantastic job at a very clean yet dramatic design while making it very functional.
Obviously since I'm using a Mac, it was just a matter of plugging it in, launching Mac's Disk Utility and setting up the drive the way I wanted it. I was up and operational in about 15 minutes from the package. Its been in service now for 3 weeks running 24/7 with no issues. The nice thing is its so nice looking, I keep it out in the open so there's good air-flow.
Byte it January 7, 2009
Craig Mitchell (West Virginia)
I needed lots more storage space, so I thought I'd try the world of terabyte drives. This one was priced right and seemed to offer all I needed.
As usual the actual usable space is much less than 1 TB, but I expected that. I have a fairly old Vaio PC running XP pro sp3 and it will not boot up when this drive is plugged in (USB2) and powered on, so I make sure it's off when I turn on the PC. Once on, I have to reset sharing protocols on it every time I want to use it on my home network.
Those are my only criticisms. The drive works fine, is quiet, and is unobtrusive in my workspace.
