5.0 out of 5 stars LaCie 80GB Drive -- Great Deal, September 29, 2005

This review is from: LaCie 80GB Portable External Hard Drive with Firewire and USB 2.0 Interface (300765) (Personal Computers)

while finishing my master treatise in 2003 i purchased a LaCie 30GB external HD for backup and found its convenience and reliability wonderful. now that i'm on to bigger and hopefully better things, i needed more storage to backup my "digital life" and this drive was the answer. its sleeker than my 30GB, runs silently, and its design is unobtrusive. you can place it in most office or home environments and it is really quite unnoticeable. i backup lots of photo and music data, and its very quick due to the firewire connection. amazon has a much better price than most, and for the storage space the price can't be beat. if you need a light, highly portable, roomy HD for storing large chunks of data, this is it. of all the portable HD manufacturers, i think LaCie is the best. you can't go wrong here.

I have been using this hard drive for more than two weeks now. So far it works perfectly. It is very light to carry around. It can be powered by computer through USB or firewire. I also have an old mobile hard drive from Lacie (similar in look except 40G and only firewire connection). It has been working fine with me for more than 1.5 years. That is why I am buying the second one.
