Product Review for product LaCie Rugged Hard Disk hard drive - 500 GB - FireWire / FireWire 800 / Hi-Speed USB

LaCie rugged 500gb

Both my son’s have this portable hardrive and are always singing its praises. My own laptops hard dive was almost full, so I decided to treat myself to this 500GB version.

I travel extensively therefore I needed something strong and very reliable. The backup software included is excellent and it is blisteringly fast and very easy to use.

Would I recommend it? Most definitely yes, further more I would rate this product 10/10.
