LaCie 2big RAID USB-C, Enterprise HDD 48TB external hard drive, 3.5 inch, RAID 0/1, USB-C, PC & Mac, 5 years Rescue Service, STHJ48000800

Needed a reliable trustworthy 40GB external HD, this is exactly that. I use it for storage only but very happy with it.

Don't buy this. Really, don't buy this. It's unreliable and expensive.

Delivery was fast (even though we were in the middle of lockdown due to Covid 19). The product is packaged professionally. This device works as described. It is a little noisy, however not to levels that should annoy anyone. During setup I encountered a very small complication (not a product fault). I called the number on the invoice and was guided through to setup completion. One thing I would like to see in a future software update in the ability to see BOTH drives and their content (when using the device in RAID1). Currently I have to hope that my content is in fact being stored on both devices, and have not been able to find a way to confirm this.

A very robust enterprise level raid drive; Seagate enterprise hard drives inside which come with a five year guarantee and LaCie is now owned by Seagate this drive comes with UPS pickup and delivery if there’s any fault you can’t go wrong with this drive oh and free data recovery included to!

if you buying raid, say you are buying 16GB its fine if you are using as a single drive if you are going to do the raid for back up you need double the capacity as 16gb will become 8 gb in raid. so be care full estimating your storage need. but good quality hardware.

Time will show if the fame of superior reliability is deserving the premium price. While advertised for Windows and Apple standards it clearly favours the Apple, arriving pre-configured in this flavour, and the transition to the Windows requirements is rather shaky. The double software system (The Manager and the Toolkit) is not convincing.

Great product

Bought this - seemed ok but then after about a week of use it starting turning itself off ramdonly - had to return it.

Partiamo dell'estetica... è bello e solido. Si presenta così bene che può essere un oggetto anche di arredamento. È abbastanza silenzioso (non concordo con le recensioni in cui viene descritto come rumoroso). Il trasferimento dati in Raid 1 è sui 200 MB/s , considerato che parliamo di un sistema con 8 tb di spazio (4tb in raid 1) mi sembra al di sopra della norma. Unico neo il manuale, che dovrebbe essere migliorato. Il software di gestione invece è buono. Provato a contattare anche il supporto tecnico... OTTIMO! per qualsiasi problematica o domanda, nel periodo di garanzia, si può contare su un supporto affidabile! Straconsigliato.

専用ソフトを使うとミラーリング設定がとても簡単です。 特にDTM用途なんかでMacでライブラリとワーク用にパーテーション切って尚且つ安全のためにミラーリング、しかも大容量が必要となるとこれ一択ですね。相変わらずの転送速度の安定感のおかげでDAWとは相性が良いです。 ただ流石に持ち運べるサイズと重さではないのでノートPCユーザーにはお勧めしません。

Die Hardware selbst ist an sich nicht schlecht. Lediglich die Lese- und Schreibgeschwindigkeit geht von 220 Mb/s auf ~165 Mb/s runter, wenn die Platten zu ca 50% belegt sind (alles im Raid1 Modus). Das verwundert doch sehr. Problematisch ist allerdings die Software! Der LaCie Raidmanager scheint seit Jahren unverändert. Mit Mac OS Big Sur ist er nur eingeschränkt kompatibel. Die Entwickler greifen immer noch auf den Kernelspace zu, anstatt die Anwendung im User Space laufen zu lassen. Das führt dazu, dass bei der Installation umständlich in einem speziellen Start-Modus in den Sicherheitseinstellungen eine Freigabe erteilt werden muss. In kommenden Betriebssystemen werden Apps nur noch im User Space laufen dürfen, das wurde bereits vor 2 Jahren (!) von Apple kommuniziert. Ich möchte nicht mit dieser teuren Raidhardware auf ein offenbar nicht besonders schnell arbeitendes Softwareteam von LaCie angewiesen sein. Gesamtpaket stimmt daher nicht

I've bought this raid drive to replace my QNAP nas which I didn't like at all as a photographer. I just wanted a drive to access all my photos and the nas was full of other garbage apps which made it a mess for me. So I've decided to once again go for a DAS (direct attached storage) and went for this drive. While I'm okey with its speed (not editing 4k videos from it), the thing that bothered me the most was the very slow wake up times and the readout of the folder contents, especially the ones containing a lot of files. It takes somethimes more than 3-4 seconds to display a folder contents, sometimes even more. I still have it but just use it as a backup drive, not connected to my mac anymore. Went back to a NAS, this time the Ubiquiti UNAS Pro which I love.

Tengo 8 discos duros de Lacie y este concretamente no ha parado de dar problema. En la primera ocasión perdí toda la información, sobre todo fotografía de mi trabajo, y ahora se ha vuelto a ir. Tiene bastantes fallos.
