It is better not to buy it, the product is not what it should be.

This is a new vision of Seagate made with artists in mind. LaCie markets their wares as superior to all other external hard drives in terms of reliability for graphic designers, which means that it caters primarily to Mac users. They hired an obviously overpriced designer to wrap the Seagate in lovely boxes, and this one in particular had its edges smoothed by a planer so that it would stand out. It's not the same disc as the LaCie Rugged in orange silicone, in case you were wondering. With a strong aluminum body and a silicone bumper, the LaCie Rugged is superior to the professional series in many ways. There's a wedding, but if you prefer 2.5-inch disks, WD provides those, too. I don't feel comfortable entrusting him with sensitive data; instead, I always bring the footage to work to be merged into Synology. With the introduction of external SAMSUNG SSDs and Synology NAS, the attitude has shifted, but LaCie Rugged is still the finest choice in the industry, so you'll still see them on the desks of Western YouTubers. Even though the burning smell is awful, I spent $11,500 on this disc to unlock the camera and remove the flash drives without leaving the register. The greatest HDD available right now, however you should still take normal precautions.

Pros
  • The topic of my writing is 5Tb. It would be erroneous to assume that he has no rivals. Due to its big capacity and ability to function away from a wall outlet, I use it as a backup disk for redundant data sources when I'm on the go. With a cheap rub/gigabyte and a recording speed of 130 MB/s, it's not enough to compete with other HDDs. I re-recorded roughly 10 terabytes on it in a year, and new noises arose; they are audible even when the device is idle, but it continues to function normally.
Cons
  • Due to its frequent head parking, DaVinci Resolve in 4K and FullHD cannot use this camera as a source. The connection in laptops is a shame because of the plastic bottom, the reasonable heat it generates (about 65 degrees) while dumping video files of 50-100 gigabytes, and the burning smell coming right from the USB C connector. There is no 2022 language on LaCie's site, which is both terribly foolish and not very instructive.
