Review Summary: Lacie 250GB Rugged H-drive
Review: I haven't put it under extensive use but so far it seems to be very rugged and has performed flawlessly backing up a pc laptop. The extra ports are great and give faster options. I would definitely use this as a direct to disk option using a laptop and firewire video camera. It also runs great off of bus power using any of the available ports. I would highly recommend this drive.

Review Summary: No problems
Review: I've had this external drive for almost 2 years, and have taken it around the world in my back-pack, with no problems or issues whatsoever. Not much more you can ask for in a portable drive.

Review Summary: great little drive
Review: This the perfect portable drive for my MacBook Pro. Easy set-up, bus powered, 3 connections including FW 800. What more could you want? I bought 2. One as a bootable back-up for my laptop, the other as extra storage/back-up for my photos. I'm a pro photographer and need back-up, redundant storage for my photos on the road. I'm doing video too, and it works for that too.

Review Summary: WILL NOT buy from Amazon again
Review: All I can say is that i will never buy any sensitive electronics from Amazon again: The hard drive arrived in a box that I think could have easily fit about 20 identical harddrives. It had almost no padding. If you moved the box around, the hard drive rattled inside. I called Amazon to complain, and they sent me a replacement which was *identically packaged*.
I will not use a hard drive that was "beaten up" all the way to my doorstep. I am afraid it will break down on me 3 weeks later. I went to a local store and paid a few extra dollars to get the same harddrive. Amazon refunded my money after i sent both harddrives back. The bottom line: I wasted valuable time y using Amazon.
