Title: Excellent, impressive backup software.
Review: New generation of HDD, so it seems - time would tale. Truth be told, review for HDD should be done a year or two after buying. But I have to say I have never been so impressed with an HDD drive. Software is awesome, size and speed are great!

Title: A Most Reliable External Drive
Review: 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 CheckI 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 likeCompatible with my Macbook ProPlug-and-play technologyRuggedNo overheating problemsPlenty of data storageI recommend this external drive for the budget conscience, graphic, or 3D editor.

Title: Not working after 2 weeks of use.
Review: 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.

Title: Just watch the cable
Review: This drive works just fine, and while it’s not indestructible, I have dropped it a couple of times and it’s doing alright. It’s obviously more fragile than a SSD, though. Fast reading and writing. I bought it because I used to work in a tech company and this is the drive our IT department used. I read the reviews here before I purchased it, so I knew ahead of time that the cable could come loose. I move it around a lot, and as long as I’m careful and sure to plug the cable into the drive securely, I don’t have any trouble with it. Is it a hassle? It can be. A deal breaker? Not for me, not if you’re careful when moving it around, but it just depends on the person. Something to consider, sure.

Title: Perfect for lots of storage needs!!
Review: We really love this external 5 TB HD and it turned out to be exactly what we were looking for.We were a bit weary at first because of the price, but it turned out to be totally worth it and will save us lots of time and money on computer storage in the long run. The storage allows us to back things up on the HD instead of the computer’s HD, which has sped up the computer’s performance and made it easier to use. We also like having our files backed up in multiple places in case an SD card was to corrupt, we would not lose any pictures! This does the trick perfectly and also comes with the chord to connect it to your device.It’s super easy to use right away and is very durable and sleek. The color is nice and the casing is very protective, so you don’t have to worry about anything happening to it or your files stored on it.We are very happy we invested in this product and will be buying again when this one is full!

Review: El disco duro es muy bonito y la goma es bastante gruesa, así que lo puedo transportar sin ninguna preocupación. El cable que incluye es de buena calidad. Hasta ahora, ningún problema con la transmisión de información (la velocidad está como en ~100-200 mb/s). Yo recomendaría comprarlo cuando está en rebaja.

Review: Por temas de protección por accidentes decidí comprarlo. Bien hay opciones para proteger los disco externos pero ya llevo 3 perdidas. Lacie ya los había visto y he visto muy buenas opiniones. Hasta el momento me ha ayudado bastante. El puerto usb c acelera más la lectura y escritura. Todo muy bien .
