LaCie Rugged SSD Pro 4TB Solid State Drive — USB-C Thunderbolt 3, Drop Shock Dust Water Resistant, for Mac and PC Computer Desktop Laptop, 1 Mo Adobe CC All App Plan, Rescue Services (STHZ4000800)

Worked well until it failed after 2 months. Struggled to boot up a couple times so I had time to back up before it inevitably completely died. The returns policy with Seagate is very poor. You have to send faulty item back before they will honour warranty. And if your mail delivery screws up and doesn’t deliver it to them in 30 Days you get nothing and they void the agreement. In short, you’re screwed.

Needed ssd's that could handle a lot of 4K video footage and then playback effortlessly when editing ... this piece of equipment does exactly that. It's fast, very fast. I have 4 of them, all totally reliable.

I bought this SSD to replace a faulty SanDisk SSD. It's more expensive but the built quality is way superior and the performances are there. I have a lot of LaCie hard drives and to this day, I never had any problem. Sometimes, buying cheap will cost you more later. This hard drive is a sure shot!

The product is reliable. I have found Thunderbolt and USB-C drives that are much cheaper but have problems with disconnects. Sometimes it is when the drive gets hot but I have seen it with idle drives too. The LaCie Rugged drives are plugged in 24/7 and when under heavy use it stays working. I know that sustained high usage that performance can go down but that is an issue with all solid state drives. I still will buy the cheaper drives when I need a temporary storage drive but for data that matters, I will only use this LaCie Rugged drive. Waiting for a price drop for my next purchase but I feel like it will never happen.

Once you swallow the price, this drive is everything it is supposed to be. Small, light, fast and big. No complaints. This is my 3rd one (all still working). Focus camera LLC shipped fast, product was new in package.
