Beautifully designed gadget, if that makes a difference. Easy to set up, either with included software or using Windows disk management routines. Mine is on a e-SATA connection and reconnects reliably at boot time. Very high speed transfers, especially of large contiguous files. Plus, it is quiet as a mouse.

Previously used external drives were hard to set up, and not reliabile. This one looks nice, was easy to set up, and came with very easy to use backup software.
So far so good! And it is much faster than other products

There are lots of 1 TB drives and many of them are attractive. This one is sleek and modern and glossy black. Very clean look on the desk.

Performance is about what I expect from any new 1 TB drive, quite, quick, and reliable for the price.

This drive not only looks cool with its purple florescent looking light underneath but it runs much cooler than the previous porsche designs. It's fast, quiet and a great bang for the buck. I run a recording studio and I have 6 other various lacie externals, all of them, including the porsche models, have been very reliable but the porsche models run hot and I had to put them on wire racks so they could get air all around them. I really like this model, a big improvement. Of course the amount of storage for the price is a true bargain.

I have read elsewhere that this drive is noisy but I have not experienced that issue. This drive is fast and has ample storage space for all my multi media.

Looks like Lacie pushed this drive with the design name and not the quality for a reason.
The fan can get very annoying and would not take any info off my mac.
If you use pc and mac this is not the drive you want.

This was a steal. I found it on PC Connection for 25 - 40% cheaper than anywhere else. The drive looks great, very sleek and shiny. It's very quiet, very compact. I've heard great things about LaCie drives, and so far I have not been disappointed. I haven't had the drive for too long, but I'm definitely a fan!

Flawless shipping. The casing loooks cool, with its minimalist design. w/r to performance, not too much to say, this is just a hard drive, it works as it should.
First time I bought on PC Connection, I will certainly do it again when needed.

Purchased the 1TB LaCie to use as a backup drive for Time Machine on my iMac running Leopard. During the setup process, I went ahead & chose to create an exchange partition as well so that my wife's PC notebook could connect to it for backup purposes as well. Fairly intuitive, quick setup procedure. Been running it for about 3 weeks now and no hiccups to speak of. It's sleek, compact (fits just under my 24-inch iMac), fairly quiet and unobtrusive. Plays well with Leopard's Time Machine; not quite as well with my wife's Windows XP laptop, but tolerable.
