| | | | Product Guides | | | | The user-friendly LaCie Hard Drive, Design by Neil Poulton adds sophisticated style to your desktop yet its presence is quiet and unobtrusive. It has a unique distinguishing feature - a cool, blue LED strip on its underside that creates an ambient glow. Its subtle, all-black design blends perfectly into dark home entertainment setups and workstations. Very small for its vast capacity, this lightweight, compact drive has a fashionable, mirror-polished finish. The smartly engineered design allows for heat dissipation and near-silent, fanless operation. With Hi-Speed USB 2.0, this efficient hard drive makes a great companion to your PC or Mac. Setup is nearly effortless; it’s plug & play and offers customizable formatting. LaCie ‘1-Click’ Backup Software for PC and Mac is included for quickly saving files in one click.

5 of 5 Good External Hard Drive Wednesday, January 21, 2009 A Customer from New Hartford, NY
Affordable, easy to use, plenty of storage space. It has everything I need. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Good option Thursday, January 15, 2009 Robert Butler from Murrieta, CA
I was looking at portable drives but decided that the LaCie would provide faster access and still small enough if I really needed to move that much data. Very happy with it. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Great hard drive! Monday, December 29, 2008 Tony G from Tulsa, OK
This is my first external hard drive, other than pulling one from a PC and putting inside a separately purchased enclosure. I love the design -- the blue light and clean lines of the black case -- and 500GB for <$85 is a great bargain! Extremely easy to connect, no issues. Using for data back-ups for 2 laptops and 2 desktops. Very satisfied with this unit!! Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Great Hard Drive. Monday, July 07, 2008 A Customer from Tallahassee, FL
I bought this hard drive to use with Time Machine on my Mac Mini. It runs flawlessly, speed and performance is good and set up was fairly simple.
The design of the hard drive is a nice bonus and it's size is not invasive to a desktop.
This is an excellent hard drive for a great price. Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 500gb external hard drive good deal Saturday, March 15, 2008 A Customer from CT
This 500gb hard drive is a good deal and it looks great also. I have been using mine for a few weeks now and have had no problems, also it is very quiet. I would suggest this product to anyone looking for a external hard drive with style. Was this review helpful?
1 of 1 customers found this review helpful. 4 of 5 Black Beauty Thursday, March 13, 2008 Gautham from Buffalo,NY
It's hard to not like this black beauty from Lacie. Might disappoint a few with its rather obvious box shape but then, it works for me!
Been almost 4 days now, ease of use and simple setup. The 500Gb actually turns out to be 465Gb after all the calculation of bits & bytes and in the end, you have to give up the 35Gb.
Stays pretty cool (it's 70F inside the house), slightly on the noisier side.
The blue light, ummm, haven't really turned it on in the dark, so I can't comment.
Pros: Ease of use, stays cool, looks awesome.
Cons: Slightly on the noisier side (with its whirring even when idle). Was this review helpful?
