3 out of 5 stars 90% chance to recover your data from a dead LaCie   May 3, 2006

This drive is easy to use, but has high failure rate. We use about 40 LaCie Firewire drives year round and have about 10% failure rate. We recovered 100% data from more than 90% of the "dead" drives. It doesn't make any sense if LaCie told you that they can't recover the data. Let us know if you need help to recover the data.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent and reliable   September 2, 2005

I've used Lacie drives since the mid-90s, and they have been consistently reliable-completely plug and play.

I highly recommend them to professionals for backup they can count on.

As of right now, I am an Apple Student Developer

Most of my work comes from Filmmaking, as I'm an Independent Filmmaker, and all of my post production work relies heavily upon my Apple G5 Tower, as well as a TON of external harddrive storage

While some of my LaCie HD's have worked great, many of them have simply failed me

here are the pro's -

1. great interface - both FireWire 400 and 800, and they are easy to daisychain

2. they are fast - 7200 RPM, and usually, if the drive is good, the performance will show

CONS -

1. very weak body ---- forget if you drop this thing even one inch - it'll be dead

2. very tough to hookup to other drives -- when I say this, I mean it is impossible to stack this drive, or try and put it in a space where it'll stay put

THE BIGGEST PROBLEM ---

I don't know what accounts for this - whether its the bridge or the drive itself - but LaCie's drives fail way too much

I've probably purchased around 14 LaCie drives in the past 4 years, for varioius film projects and associate ones ----- of the 14, I have had 5 completely fail on me

This is simply unacceptable for any drive company

when you consider it all, companies like MAXTOR offer drives with the same interface, same speeds, but at a lower price

with that said, take a look at MAXTOR, whose drives are housed in a very indestructive body (...)
On a sidenote, LaCie has honored the warranties on their drives, and when they're open, their customer service is very helpful --- but I've lost too much data, at this point, to recommend them

Easy to use. Nice to look at. Does its job perfectly. Research no more, this one is worth every penny.
