KKOB Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 LaCie's a good make, and i've been looking at that drive as well. Can't remember if it has firewire 800 though. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jordan Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 I hope they're not as bad as those fucking black ones. I can't remember the name, but alot of them fail. Just becareful. All else fails if it does die, its probably due to over heating, just rip it out of the case and use it inside the computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wesley Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 Do what I do and have an external case where you swap hard drives around in. I have a hard drive with a complete backup and one just with my music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginger_Chris Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Lacie are nice drives, good build quality fairly quiet. I had one for 2 and a bit years, packed in eventually (although funny sounds came out for a week beforehand so I could rebackup everything on it). It did do a fair amount of travelling though, so I completely don't blame them. Unless you get a solid state drive they are all prone to knocks and bumps,i didn't expect it to last forever. Saying that, if its staying in the same spot or being moved rarely, I recommend any LaCie or Seagate (replacement) drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
