Review on LaCie 160GB d2 Extreme Hard Drive - USB2.0 and FireWire 400/800 Interfaces (301033U) by Andrew Lyons

Lacie makes good stuff. Your d2 line of drives looks great with a sturdy metal body that's understated yet elegant in techno style. This drive also matched their d2 DVD burners, with the same metallic look and blue light. Same PSU, so if you somehow lose one or one fails and the other stays, you're still in luck. Triple interface. Yes, Firewire 400 (single port), 800 (dual port) and USB 2.0 for those of you PC types :) Try FireWire 400. Attached cable, attached power supply and boom. 160GB of desktop storage (formatted for Mac by default). Works very cool, quiet. Like most modern external drives, it can be placed vertically on a sturdy stand. Also fits in a rack if you wish. The drive is smaller than some other external devices I've seen. Which is good for me as desktop space is at a premium. Even though I've only been using the product for 5 days, I feel confident enough to give it two thumbs up.
