Negative Positive
Title: An expensive boat anchor
Review: At our professional recording studio, we've been through 4 LaCie Big Disk 1 TB external hard drives since 2007. None has lasted more than about 6 months until the last one, which hung in there for a year. They're stored in a quiet and air-conditioned machine room, alongside PC workstations that have been running for years. Everything is UPS protected. Each drive eventually fails to the point that it just makes drive-hashing noises and doesn't show up at all on the computer. I've swapped power supplies, connector cables and computers (everything in the skimpy LaCie suppport web page). They're 0 in 4.They're fine until they die. Then they're doorstops. Caveat emptor!
