    Time is Money.
  

*by E***O on Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2015*

I'm a media professional. I work with a lot of RED footage, project files, and music. I need a reliable, fast, and portable drive to take with me on shoots to handle on site data transfers.Previously I had brought a 5400RPM Thunderbolt Drive with me on shoots and transferring 100 or so gigs of footage would take about 45 minutes to an hour. Sitting around and waiting for the footage to dump at the end of a long day is the last thing you want to do so I looked for other alternatives.I had a LaCie Rugged USB Thumbdrive that failed on me after about 2 months so I was hesitant to come back to the LaCie brand. But I said screw it, and went for it.And so far so good. It's survived a couple shoots and a few plane trips. It feels solid, and it's USB powered so it's truly portable. I haven't dropped it yet so I can't testify to it's durability in that regard. It's cut down data transfer speeds to "is this real life?" levels. 100 gigs takes 5-10 minutes. It's truly a time saver. And time is money, And money is good to buy yourself a ticket to disneyland where you can buy mad amounts of corn dogs to eat.

*by K***S on Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2016*

Upon receiving the product, I had to screw in one of the screws that was half-way in position under the orange enclosure.  (photo shown after it was fixed)  It was causing it to stick up and was very noticeable.  Unsure about LaCie's quality control on the product, but seems to perform as described.There is only the one lightening port, so that it must be at the end of a chain of Lightning devices.  This means I can only really purchase one of these for my use and probably would have purchased more if they would have this simple design / use of Lightning ports like all other similar devices.  other than that, it has been a good product so far.

*by J***. on Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2014*

Bought this to use as a boot/primary drive for a Late 2013 27" iMac.  It has been serving that purpose quite well with several weeks of uninterrupted uptime.  This is basically a Samsung SSD (their reseller line) in a durable case with a built-in Thunderbolt cable.  Great way to speed up your iMac without cracking the case & voiding the warranty.  I haven't done benchmarks, but anecdotally it performs every bit as well as any internal SSD.  I zip-tied it on to the back of the iMac base so I can move the machine around without worrying about yanking or dragging the drive.I read somewhere that the orange rubber surround was not removable in this model.  I was able to remove it, though it provides a nice grip against the machine it's tied to so left it on.  The Thunderbolt cable is also orange and is not removable.Though this is clearly designed to be a portable/backup drive, it does a fine job as a primary.  I found it to be a good value.  An internal SSD, Western-Digital sled, and cable price out around $250.  For an extra $50, you get convenience and protection for the drive.
