I just got this drive a few weeks ago. The setup is simple...I use it on a macbook pro and also on a desktop power mac. I am able to switch from one computer to the other with no problems at all. The drive is very quiet and I'd say its pretty compact and lightweight. I use it mainly with my laptop and will be moving it around more than any of my other drives...so hopefully it stands up to that test. All of my other externals are connected to my desktop...so this is the first drive I will be using on the go
i hope it lasts!

I had another LaCie 350gb drive for 3 years. Loved it never had any problems. Got the 1tb in august, backed up the 350 to it along with some other photos. Worked great, smooth transfer etc. Plug it in today, Nov. 10, and my macbookpro nor my work powerbookG4 would recognize it, asking if I wanted to initialize it. Called LaCie, waited 12 minutes, they said it corrupted apparently but "the drive is still good." My take is this: it's like the "mob" trust is more important to us than money. Same goes here reliability is more important than "the drive still being good."
I know that's a big con, frankly I think because it's plastic it doesnt seem as tough as my metal one. Who knows. They say it's the power supply/dismounting incorrectly/etc. but I've always been cautious.
Going back to Western Digital and getting a RAID.

Comments about LaCie 1TB Hard Disk:
It did not format right out of the box. I had to contact LaCie directly, many times. Then I got instructions on formatting in DOS! I had never been so frustrated with a piece of equiptment before. I actually had to call in a tech to get the thing to work!!

Comments about LaCie 1TB Hard Disk:
I purchased a 500 GB Laci about two yrs ago which I am very pleased with. With that in mind I decided to purchase this 1 TB Lacie.....I have not been disappointed. Very easy set up and very easy to transfer data (I just copy and paste the files I need to transfer).Since my computer's hard drive only holds 250 GB of space, Lacie has become an easy way to expand my hard drive and backup my data. The only con I have is that the USB 2 cable is only about 1 1/2 ft long....had to go purchase a 3 ft one.

My fourth Lacie drive, using this one for archive, but will run my audio recording software when needed. It's slightly louder than my others, which are the d2 series, but I'm only really using this for archive. So far it does everything I want, not sure what else I would look for.

I have to transfer external drive from other manufacturer due to glitches and some problems, but with this I am so comfortable and so easy to transfer files. I will definitely recommend this product to my friend. My son already have one Lacie Rugged and he recommended this product to me.

I wanted a back up drive to work with Apple's Time Machine software.
So far no problems.
This does what it is supposed to do, and it's very quiet. I think you'll like it.

Comments about LaCie 1TB Hard Disk:
This hard drive is really easy to set up - as long as you have USB 2.0 the transfer speeds are decent - and creating backup jobs is also easy.
Two weeks after I installed the backup my hard drive crashed. It was very simple to restore all our photos and explorer links to our new PC.
This is a high quality item, and the added security for your files is very much worth it.
Main gripe - the USB cord is kind of short. Even another 6" would make a big difference when you have to pull out your pc.

Space age packaging and lots of room, this is a great drive for every need. High speed transfers and plug and play ease of use. This Lacie drive is everything an external drive should be!The only complaint would be the durability...seems like it could suffer traveling...but kept in it's own pouch it should be fine.

I use it as a Time Machine and it works great. It doesn't seem to slow my computer down, it's very quick to eject and isn't too loud. The USB cable it comes with is pretty short, I had to buy a different one to make it across my desk.

Comments about LaCie 1TB Hard Disk:
I use this drive as third backup on my stock photography files. I have used LaCie drives for eight years with no failures yet... knock on wood.
I usually don't work directly off a HD but it seems pretty quick. I wish it had firewire 800.

Comments about LaCie 1TB Hard Disk:
One of the least expensive 1TB external hard drive on the market, but it is also one of the best. Sleek design is both attractive and inconspicuous. Used in conjunction with my imac's time machine back up system, it is working just great. Had a bit of trouble installing due to operating system incompatibility, but even a relative technophobe like me was able to eventually figure it out.

Comments about LaCie 1TB Hard Disk:
Love the look and function. I back up my MBP with this drive (after I've backed up my various media files to other drives). If you're running Lion you have to reformat the hard drive the old fashioned way, but that's no biggie. In fact, it might be better because you won't have a lot of other extraneous information loaded on automatically. The only thing that would make it better, of course, is a Firewire 800 port. But that's why this is so inexpensive so beggars can't be choosers. Great drive.

I use these LaCie drives for my redundant second or third back up drives. I had several working for a couple of years with not trouble. Of about two dozen lacie drives I've had only one fail in ten years.

Comments about LaCie 1TB Hard Disk:
We use the product to store and transfer HD video files.
It is light, affordable, spins at 7200rpm, and looks classy
The plastic body makes it feel a little cheap and it could use a firewire port, but this is what you get for $60-70
