If you want a desktop storage solution that boasts clean lines and a 5mm thick aluminum enclosure, the 1TB Porsche Design P'9231 Desktop Hard Drive is there for you. While the enclosure matches the aesthetic of the MacBook Pro, this drive is compatible with both Windows and Mac computers. In addition, it features the USB 2.0 interface for connecting to your computer.
Beyond merely storing your photos, videos, music, or data, this drive can also do a little more, courtesy of the included software suite. You can password protect your drive and setup an automatic schedule for backing up your computer's hard drive. An Automatic Eco mode also lowers the power of the drive by 77% when not in use, saving your notebook's battery power. With the drive and the software, you also receive 10GB of Wuala Online Storage that is complimentary for a year.

You plug it in and it installs itself, color matches iMac, no hassle backup. I am running this in an iMac with Paralles and Windows 7.

Comments about LaCie 1TB Porsche Design P'9231 Desktop Hard Drive:
Use this drive for my Time Machine backups - and seems to work well so far. Quieter than my old Lacie that had started to die - after 5 or 6 years. Not silent, but better.
