  • Couldn't be happier..

    5.0 out of 5 stars

    I needed storage for my media and iTunes library, and this drive fitted the bill. It's large and fast, but most importantly for me it looks great. I'm a real fan of brushed aluminium look. It's also quiet, doesn't buzz or make annoying sounds and it doesn't overheat even after several hours of continuous work.

    I purchased mine about a year or so ago and it worked fine in the beginning but now my Macbook Pro does not read the drive when I plug it into the USB port. The drive is whirling away as though it was working but nothing! Have to purchase a new drive to perform backups on and not really happy.

  • Works Great!

    5.0 out of 5 stars

    I bought this drive a few months ago and I must admit, I plugged it in, configured the backup settings and I haven't had to touch it since. It sits there and quietly does its work. It looks good too. Definitely a drive to recommend.

    5.0 out of 5 stars

    I'd recommend this drive to anyone who travels often and needs to work with large files. I'm an amateur travel photographer and yo u can imagine just how much storage space I need. I've got two drives like this that I take with me on trips. It's usually enough to backup 7-10 days' worth of work. When I get home, I move the data across to my iMac and process it. USB 3.0 certainly helps. File transfers don't take much time anymore.

  • Been through 2 LaCie P'9223's in one month!

    1.0 out of 5 stars

    My first LaCie P'9223 only lasted for seconds before it failed. Within a few hours I was back at the Apple Store to return the dr ive for another - figuring I just got a lemon. The seond P'9223 lasted about a month before it too suffered a mechanical failure. The drive is now back at LaCie who is trying to recover the data off the drive. They do not cover this in their warranty - and it can cost upwards of $1200 for data recovery. A third LaCie is on its way to me for free from the company (per the warranty), but I will not use it for any data that I can't live without.
