The media could not be loaded. I couldn’t be happier with my decision! As a video and graphic designer, having reliable and efficient storage is crucial, and this device delivers on all fronts. Design: The sleek and modern design of the Lecie external drive is both stylish and practical. It has a compact form factor that easily fits into my laptop bag, making it perfect for on-the-go work.

It’s plug-and-play, which means I was able to start using it immediately without any complicated setup. The included USB-C connection ensures compatibility with my MacBook Pro, and it even comes with a USB-A adapter for older devices. Fast Transfer: One of the standout features is the transfer speed. I’ve tested it with large video files, and the data transfer is impressively fast. Copying and moving files is a breeze, allowing me to focus more on my projects rather than waiting around for uploads or downloads. Seamless Performance: It works flawlessly with my MacBook Pro.

  • Update: Works OK after mysterious initial failure
Style: Mini HDD Capacity: 5TB
REVISED 01/01/25: I purchased this to back up a half-full 6TB Seagate Backup Plus drive that's acting flaky, attached to my MacMini. UPDATE: The drive came formatted EX-FAT (Mac and Windows compatible) with a USB-C to USB3-Micro B "Super Speed" (two lobes, for the drive) cable. With no spare USB-C ports on my MacMini, I used a Samsung USB3-A to USB3-Micro B cable from an older Seagate drive into a Sabrent USB3-A hub on the MacMini. It worked fine at first, then failed as described below. Retrying with the LaCie cable into a USB-C to USB3-A adapter into the hub worked. Super sensitivity in the Mac system? I have no other explanation as the drive continues to work on Windows PCs with the old Samsung cable. INITIAL REPORT: It mounted fine out of the box, and macOS Disk Utility recognized it as a 5TB volume "LaCie." The first few copy batches of multi-GB files and folders worked OK, but then copying stopped, and macOS Sequoia 15.2 reported "Copy operation stopped, volume disappeared." (WTF??). macOS Disk Utility no longer sees the device. It mounted as a USB volume on Windows 11, and I could see the copied files. Windows reported disk problems so I ran the Scan & Repair utility (Properties->Tools), which took a while but reported a successful repair. Trying again on macOS, and the same result: The drive starts up (vibrates) as expected but doesn't mount and is still invisible to the Disk Utility app. ... show more

  • A Most Reliable External Drive
Style: USB-C HDD Capacity: 5TB
I first discovered the LaCie drives during a music video shoot in the middle of nowhere. The DP would dump his footage into the drive. Which in turn was dumped into a computer later. The DP chose the LaCie brand because he used it in rough climates and places without failure. Today, I chose this drive for the same reasons. 3D creation produces massive amounts of data. I needed a drive that could hold all that data and take a beating if it were dropped. Backing up to the cloud is okay, provided I have an internet connection. But, using the cloud as a server came with problems. Reality Check I needed an external drive that could hold more data than my computer. The drive would act as a server for the computer. The drive must be rugged. There would be times when it would be used in the field. The lack of funds left me looking at HDD models instead of SSDs. Nonetheless, this drive has not let me down. And because it is a 5TB drive, it can handle my data storage needs. What I like Compatible with my Macbook Pro Plug-and-play technology Rugged No overheating problems Plenty of data storage I recommend this external drive for the budget conscience, graphic, or 3D editor. ... show more

  • Not working after 2 weeks of use.
Style: Rugged mini HDD Capacity: 2TB
I purchased this to have in my stash as a photographer and when I went to use it, it is not working. It’s not durable. The cord doesn’t stay in the hard drive and keeps disconnecting. Very frustrating as a creative who has to store photos and do post production.
