💻 LaCie Porsche Design 4TB USB 3.0 Desktop External Hard Drive + 2 Months Adobe Creative Cloud Photography (STEW4000400) Review

I've only bought 2 large backup drives in my life, one lasted ten years and the other lasted at least 5 years as far as I can remember. This. days! 27 days to be exact. He died so quickly I can just take him back to Revane and get something else. Avoid!

I bought this device to back up all my game saves, YouTube videos and documents. It also looked great under my Mac. I bought it in January 2019 and it died today in July 2020. I thought buying this LaCie hard drive would be the answer to all my problems. I feel like this device has made things MUCH worse.

If I could give less than 1 star I would. I used this hard drive 4 times and when I backed everything up to a new computer you know what? It didn't work - didn't mount, couldn't access it - dead to the world. 2 months later - I have 10 external drives and this is only the second to have failed and the only one to have failed in 2 months! Sure, the hardware is under warranty, but data loss recovery costs $599! I will never buy this brand again

I can't find my "missing password" or get support. I was blocked from any help from support right when I needed it most. It's crazy. Buttons "Forgot Password" No. I don't remember changing it, but it should be. Nothing works. I paid all the money and now I can't get it back or get help. Please pay attention and do not buy this product.

This is the third LaCie hard drive I've bought and I keep coming back to LaCie drives for their reliability. When I had to downgrade from a smaller drive, I chose this one knowing full well that previous drives worked so well. Setup was relatively easy. Once it's up and running, you can just forget about it as it takes the necessary backups as instructed and quietly lives in the background, taking care of itself. A thin strip of light on the right lets you quickly and easily see that the drive…

I recently purchased this LaCie hard drive to use with my iMac for Time Machine backups. It replaces a 3TB LaCie d2 Thunderbolt-2 desktop hard drive that I have used for this purpose for the past 3.5 years. This Thunderbolt drive worked reliably and was completely filled with backups stored on it for the period until a few weeks ago when I started having problems with my computer suddenly freezing during browser sessions. I finally determined that the problem was with the LaCie hard drive…

Nonsense! Didn't work out of the box! I tried reformatting it for Mac and the capacity went from 4TB to 100MB. I had one of these 3 years ago that eventually died so I decided to replace it with the same model. Big mistake. I chose the G drive instead. There are no problems at all.

I bought this CD with 2 Rugged LaCie CDs. These two disks have worked for more than ten years and continue to work. I bought two 4TB LaCie Porsche Design Desktop Hard Drives. The first drive that arrived took over three days to transfer my backup files and ultimately failed to complete the task. The second ride worked the same way. I even gave him 24 hours to complete the task. I've repeatedly seen a 0 byte message for less than 5 seconds to transmit with at least 6 hours left. I also rejected…

I purchased this hard drive in September 2017 as a backup hard drive for home storage. I had way too many external hard drives and ended up saving up to have one at home. All my work is saved on this thing and nothing else is restored. I would not pay attention to customer reviews that are within 3 months. I heard a lot about LaCie and thought my troubles were over. They only got worse.
