Lacie 2big RAID 16TB Disk Array Desktop Black

LaCie Only. I bought this from my media server, Plex. This is where my 4K movies will go because of the transfer rate and the size 16 TB I put all of my 4K media on there in seven hours I’ve always had problems streaming this content, but not from this drive. Transferring at 500 MB a second. It purrs like a kitten. And it performs like a Porsche You can’t go wrong this is the first two big dock I’ve bought, own, the one big dock, and the D3 professional along with 10 rugged drives from 2 TB to 5 TB And over the years they all still work Put that in your pipe and smoke it installation is a piece of cake, very easy Small power cord footprint

My wife is thrilled with the LaCie 2big RAID 16TB External Hard Drive! Using a Mac, the setup and configuration were incredibly straightforward, saving me a lot of time. The speed is impressive for an external drive, making it a breeze to store and access large photo collections. My wife and I both love it for easily managing and accessing our precious memories. Highly recommended for Mac users wanting easy and quick storage for photos and videos.

Le disque à peine utilisé, il ne monte plus. On ne peut même pas le reformater car il est inaccessible. LaCie, depuis qu'ils ont été racheté par Seagate, n'a plus du tout le même service après-vente. Cela sonne dans le vide, à attendre 40 minutes sans fin, plusieurs fois. Heureusement, Amazon se charge de le réparer. Mais quelle tristesse de voir LaCie sur le déclin.

Video-editor here. Using this on RAID-0 and this thing gets noisy as hell when scrubbing footage or rendering. I can barely drown out the noise with my speakers. Also seems to easily bottle neck. Takes forever to transfer a file to the disk while it's also busy exporting something, for example. I should have gone with a Pegasus RAID

As a commercial photographer, I need vast amounts of storage. I've used LaCie mirrored RAIDs for fifteen years, and It has been a love-hate relationship from the beginning. I am finally done. Nothing has ever worked out of the box. Every drive, from the first to the last requires hours of firmware updates, software, troubleshooting, etc. If you call tech support, they blame Apple... Apple blames LaCie... and nothing gets resolved. I am trying to rid myself of the older, slower drives with low capacity in favor or larger, faster drives. I purchased this 40TB beast, which (technically) would give me 20TB of mirrored storage... if the drive actually worked. After a day of trying everything, including multiple computers, multiple USB-C cables, downloading the latest LaCie RAID Manager software and trying to update the drive's firmware... nothing, nada, zilch. The drive powers up, but is never recognized by the computers. If you are looking for a $1,600 blinking blue nightlight, this is the drive for you! If, however, you want a simple solution for large, safe storage, but anything else. LaCie is to drives what McDonalds is to hamburgers... they are the most well known to consumers and they make a lot of them!.. but they suck!
