Best Bargain Review - LaCie Rugged All-Terrain 1 TB FireWire Portable External Hard Drive 301924
Mobile, All-Terrain Protection
Designed exclusively for LaCie by world-renowned designer Neil Poulton, the Rugged Hard Disk is built like an off-road vehicle, ready to withstand the bumps and bruises of your travels. Featuring a unique, scratch-protected, aluminum shell and shock-resistant rubber bumper, the drive is shockproof up to 2.2 meters. And it's MIL-compliant, meaning it meets a series of standards from the United States Army's Developmental Test Command that test how well a specific device performs when placed under stress or extreme conditions.
Also, the Rugged Hard Disk can be outfitted with additional colorful bumpers (sold separately). Easy-to-change with the same durability once on, the bumpers are made of the same quality rubber as the original bright orange sleeve. The optional set of three additional sleeves includes green-grey, blue-grey, and black bumpers.
Measuring 1 by 3.5 by 5.7 inches (H x W x D) and weighing 8.82 ounces, the Rugged Hard Disk is designed for travel and will fit easily in your briefcase or backpack. Take it with you on business trips and vacations, or use it for transferring files from one desktop computer to another.
Three Interfaces for Fast Connections
The Rugged Hard Disk offers speed and versatility with three connection interfaces, letting you use it with almost any computer. The FireWire 800 interface provides up to 800 Mbits/s data-transfer speed, ideal for video editing and other intensive work. FireWire 400--a preference of Mac users--provides 400 Mbits/s transfer speeds. And the nearly universal USB 2.0 interface offers a transfer rate of up to 480 Mbits/s, and is backwards compatible with USB 1.1.
With its driver-free and plug-and-play functionality, exchanging data between Macs and PCs is easy.
