Digital camera reviews of LaCie 301065U Brick 500GB USB 2.0 Stackable External Hard Drive Red

Digital camera Review: Just what I needed
Summary: 5 Stars

This is the second LaCie Brick USB external hard drive I have bought as of yet, and while it isn't fancy or comes with a multitude of special features, it does the job it's supposed to -- backing up both my laptop and my second LaCie brick with room to spare -- with ease and speed.

Setup takes literally less than 5 minutes, and it was plug-and-play right out of the box. I chose not to install the software it came with ("One-touch backup") as I personally have no use for it. It makes hardly any noise if any at all, and the speed at which it works makes it extremely efficient. Not to mention, the design is fun, a space-saver, and adds life to my desk.

I highly recommend this product and I wouldn't hesitate to buy another.

Digital camera Review: LaCie 500 GB "Block"
Summary: 5 Stars

My experience with external drives is somewhat limited. I own a 80 GB FireLite and two drives removed from an older computer. My "Red Brick" is a treasure. I really like the large memory and very fast search time. The price was not too bad (under $200). The one thing I wish was different was the power source. You must connect it to a AC outlet for use. Other than that, I plan to purchase another soon

Digital camera Review: LaCie 500GB Hard Drive
Summary: 5 Stars

As with all LaCie products I've purchased,both the design and performance are rock solid.Adding to this the unbeatable price I can come to only one conclusion.I must have another!

Digital camera Review: Lacie 500 brick too noisy
Summary: 4 Stars

This is my second Lacie 500 gb ext drive. The first was a d2 Extreme, then I bought this brick version. I see no difference in performance but the noise level of the brick version is *much* higher than the d2 version. If you have a quiet office and want to keep it that way, get the d2 version instead of this one. Otherwise, they're identical, if you only need a USB 2 interface.

Digital camera Review: Lacie has the "cool" factor
Summary: 4 Stars

I recently bought Lacie 500 GB Desktop (USB) Hard Drive, after using it in my lab. The hard drive has an effective free space of 465 GB. Thats quite a lot going into formatting. Works well on PCs, on Mac G4 it is a bit slower, don't know why. More than anything else, it has the "cool" factor because of its design. I am sure there are more efficient and sturdier HDs out there but this one just looks really cool. Overall it works well. The Lacie backup software that comes with it is quite ordinary though. It is slow, and only does a blind copy of the files. No options to make disk images etc.
