Digital camera reviews of LaCie Rugged All-Terrain 320 GB USB 2.0 Portable External Hard Drive 301833
Digital camera Review: A Satisfied Non-Tekkie
Summary: 5 Stars
Let me be upfront: I am a twenty-something who works in publishing (words on paper!), still has a 2nd generation iPod, and doesn't own a flat screen. I'm so non-technological it's almost cliche.
My home iBook and work PC were housing a varied assortment of personal photos and music, and I needed a shared space to store everything once I got a new job. Thanks to a Google search, I found out that not all external hard drives can be used on both platforms and came across a few recommendation for the LaCie.
What I Like:
- There was nothing to install. I plugged this in at work (PC) and the device was immediately recognized via the USB. File storage was a simple drag and drop like you'd do with a smaller thumb drive. Same goes for my home iBook, although I did need the extra USB hookup as an added power supply.
- Easy to carry around. As an SU grad, I totally dig the orange cover. It's pretty rugged as far as personal-size devices go (could probably take more of a beating than my cell phone), but I wouldn't recommend taking it rock climbing or dirt biking.
Notes:
- Since I didn't have any problems using the device, I had no need to contact Customer Support, although it is available and the device comes preloaded with a product manual (saves trees!)
- I'm am using this at the most 101 level possible: to store my personal photos and as iTunes backup. If you need serious file backup, you'll prob want to keep reading some other reviews.
Definitely recommended for:
- People who use both PC and Mac platforms
- People who are intimidated by tech devices that are supposed to make your life easier but you always seem to be that .01% that can't get it to work.
- People who love orange
