Product Information

The 500GB Little Big Disk Quadra External Hard Drive from LaCie delivers high-performance in a portable package. Built for the professional on the go, the drive features a triple interface that allows it to be connected via eSATA, FireWire-800, FireWire-400 or USB 2.0, a large 16MB data buffer, a built-in RAID 0 controller, and fanless cooling.

The drive is bus powered when connected via FireWire and offers sustained transfer rates of up to 115MB/sec using eSATA, 85MB/sec using FireWire-800, 40MB/sec using FireWire-400, and 35MB/sec using USB 2.0.
