Lacie rugged thunderbolt 1tb 2 5 review.

It s the first bus powered usb 3 0 portable thunderbolt drive that uses a solid state drive ssd as its storage. Read honest and unbiased product reviews from our users. The lacie rugged ssd pro is available in 1tb 400 and 2tb 700 capacities the same prices as samsung s x5. The lacie rugged usb 3 0 available at a street price of 299 99 msrp and is protected by a two year limited warranty.

With current prices at around 0 22 0 30 per gigabyte the rugged ssd fetches quite the premium over standard flash products. Lacie has used a seagate hard drive the st2000lm007 which is a mobile hdd with a 7mm profile and that explains why the device is so small. For example this lacie rugged thunderbolt usb c drive we are looking at today is usb c enabled but the usb c port is simply using the usb 3 standard and not the newer usb3 1 standard. We tested the less capacious unit.

The lacie rugged usb 3 0 thunderbolt still manages to be a first though. It is also available in 500gb 1tb and 1 5tb capacities as well as 1tb and 1 5tb mini formats. It only has two platters each with a 1tb capacity. Lacie s rugged ssd comes in three capacities.

500gb 1tb and 2tb. 9000294 2tb item number. Again this comes down to the fact that the maximum speed of a mechanical hard drive doesn t even come close to saturating a usb 3 connection so paying for usb 3 1 hardware would have no benefit at all but.
