Works great love it
- Pros: nice design, works great, and everything....
- Cons: none
It worked. For an hour.
- Pros: Surprisingly quiet, nice form factor, Lacie tech support was accessible and helpful.
- Cons: The fact that I needed tech support in the first place. Oh, and that the drive failed on the first day.
- Other Thoughts: Hooked the drive up and the computer recognized it immediately. Decided to reformat to NTFS. The process took about an hour during which the drive got very warm, but not particularly hot. After the reformat, the computer rebooted spontaneously. I figured that's just how the drive was set up to work. After the reboot, my computer did not recognize the drive. I pulled the USB cable and reinserted hoping that would solve the problem. My computer rebooted. I switched the drive off. My computer rebooted. Never again did my computer recognize the drive. Called Lacie tech support and got through in less than 5 minutes! They suggested I try the drive on a second computer. Since I don't have a they suggested the most likely culprit was a "defective or failed controller." Sounded like they’d heard this complaint before. I requested an RMA/refund (didn’t buy from Newegg because they were out of stock).

Worked well, for 9 months
- Pros: Fast drive, good capacity, Good Technical Support from LaCie
- Cons: Drive would occasionally have read errors and I would end up having to reconnect the cable to my PC.
5 days ago, the drive would spin up but no PC/Mac/Linux box could read the drive. I suspect it to be the IDE to IEEE 1394 within the enclosure to be the issue.
- Other Thoughts: I purchased the IEEE 1394 version of this drive and it seemed to perform very well. There were some issues communicating with my Dell E1505 Laptop, but I believe it was a driver issue. The drive did not work very well but LaCie's support is rather helpful.
If the interface controller fails and the drive still works, the IDE drive within can be removed and used as an internal drive
