I've been using this to back up all my DVD's and it's a treat to just plug it in, have it mount, drag your data over, unmount.

Comments about LaCie 1TB Rikiki Go Portable Hard Drive:
I didn't realize how small this product was until it arrived and was so pleased at how little space it occupies and how much it holds. Like other LaCie products its user friendly and attractive. I would definitely buy this product again, particularly because of its reasonable price.

Comments about LaCie 1TB Rikiki Go Portable Hard Drive:
Highly practical backup for the MacBook Pro. Since it's bus powered, has a contained cord, and is small, it it's easy to pack and travels well. Not the fastest interface, but adequate for this purpose. May get another star if it proves reliable.

Comments about LaCie 1TB Rikiki Go Portable Hard Drive:
Very satisfied with drive: small case size, all metal with good finish, large drive capacity for a 2.5" drive. The USB cable can be changed for a longer one when needed.

Comments about LaCie 1TB Rikiki Go Portable Hard Drive:
I'm a professional photographer based in the Middle East. I've had too many bad experiences with other Hard Drives to risk my day's work.
This is a great, light, durable, and consistent (!!!) hard drive.
Unfortunately this is only a little back up... Today's multimedia market demands RAW and HD Video + sound = many Hard Drives....
Good choice and good luck to you all!

Comments about LaCie 1TB Rikiki Go Portable Hard Drive:
I can't believe how small these drives are!
I own several f the 500 gig Rikiki's and Love Them.
I think the 1 TB may draw a little more juice and sometimes doesn't boot if it's on the same bus with other bus powered items.
I'm going to get a powered usb hub which I'm sure will sort this out.
