Rating:  - My Last LaCie Drive...Ever
I recently had a 200GB LaCie Big Disk die at work after relatively light use. Then I remembered that I had a 250 model in the same series die at home about a year ago. The wheels started turning: I had a 500GB LaCie Big Disk at home, seldom used and only as a backup. But recently I had used it as a capture disk for a client video project. Then I remembered to look up the item online to see what others were saying. After reading the previous reviews here, alarm bells went off. I immediately began ... Read More
Rating:  - Works OK for me
I guess I must be lucky, because I have used one of these drives for almost a year now without any problems.It's only drawback is that it is BIG.But then they tell you that up front.Mine installed easily and has worked well.It has a nice power switch on the front which is convenient.I use mine flat (not upright) and it is quiet and seems fast.No trouble so far, so no complaints.
I give it 4 star because it is well built (metal, heavy), quiet, well designed and has functioned ... Read More
Rating: - The bigger they are...

Rating: - Faulty Design + Horrible Support = LaCie
I purchased two LaCie 500 GB Big Disks (external, USB), only to figure out one of the drives actually crashes my PC on reboot (the other drive does not, so this is obviously a flaw in the first one). Having been convinced (somewhat) by LaCie's support monkeys that this *just might* be the fault of my PC, I let it slide for a while, but after I bought a completely new PC (new motherboard, absolutely no parts in common with the old PC) and noticed that the LaCie drive crashed my new PC on reboot as well, ...

Rating: - Avoid this drive at all costs if you value your data
I have to agree, and underscore the experience of others on this one. I purchased two LaCie 500GB drives at the same time, new - about 800 bucks then (they are much less expensive now).
They started failing quickly when I did a lot of data moving onto them. I updated the firmware as specified (which trashed my ability to connect to some USB devices even though I was using Firewire).
The drives were getting hot. I called LaCie. I told them that obviously, some kind of fan must ... Read More
