Lacie makes the best rugged hdd. Of course a portable ssd is better but it’s also much more expensive

Good stuff but don't trust the speed advertised
Bought this after checking many reviews. It's tough and safe and does its job without any issues in both Pc and Mac. The only downside I saw was on the speed. When I received it fresh and before loading it with my files, I got around 115 to 120mb/s transfer speed. After storing 1.5 TB files (now 2.5Tb free), the transfer speed dropped to 45Mb/s Wead and 67MB/s Read. Totally disappointed and will never recommend this to anyone who is looking for speed.

Reliable so far the go-to backup drive for MACs
I got this in desperation, after my iMac decided it did not like WD for backing up. It still did not work with this LaCie. Frustrated, because this was a new drive and expensive, I narrowed down the issue to my RAM upgrade.As soon as I removed the faulty memory and replaced it with the original Mac memory, bam it did my backup in 20 minutes.It was an expensive purchase $160 for only 2TB, but this will be my trusty reliable backup drive for my iMac to come.I don't want to go through what I did again. Starting from scratch 3x. Without a backup because the Mac corrupted my other two WD drives with the backups.If you are on the fence, trust me when I say that in the end, it's not worth losing data and time to start over.The build is amazing. It's solid, small and has a led indicator light. Comes with two cables and Adobe Creative suite free trial. It's supposed to be rain proof, drop proof and can handle 1 ton runover by a truck.SHIPPING:Arrived sooner than expected with Prime in a bubble envelope no signature. No padded packaging by Amazon. Lucky I was home and saw it stuffed in my mailbox. If someone stole it, it would have been a nightmare. If it was not the Rugged LaCie, I would have returned it and asked for padded secure shipping.CON: the USB plug into the drive wobbles and does not fully insert. This is a problem if you travel or use this drive on the go. At home you can carefully leave it undisturbed, but why make something so solid to make a delicate USB connection? And this is the latest new drive from LaCie. They might have done this to make room for silicone, but it is better to have a secure connection.I tried removing the silicone protection and inserting the USB that way but it still does not fully click in and insert. There is a gap.Just be very careful about this. The quality otherwise feels amazing with it's thick aluminium casing. I still recommend it for MAC.
