Customer Reviews

Short Life - Bad Support
14 months old and still on warranty. Power supply now dead. Contacting LaCie in France by mail and fax returned a no answer. Opened the disk case knowing that I`ll loose warranty and guess what you have inside - 1 Hitachi Deskstar Disk. Fortunately the disk works in my docking station and I could get all my data. Don`t buy from LaCie. Bad quality products. Company not reliable.

Lacie drives are unreliable
I have had half a dozen different drives over the last 5 years. Three were Lacie, and all failed after about a year. They run very hot, the power supplies break down and ultimately the drives fail. I would NEVER buy one again.

Crap, Crap Crap product

This is my sincere request to all that never buy a Lacie product ever. They have no reliability whatsoever and the customer service is worst ever seen. My 2TB HDD crashed twice within span of 6mnths, is there a need to say more about the reliability of the product.
Lacie product is a big NO NO for everyone.
