Description

The LaCie Rugged Mini USB 3.0 4TB is a portable external hard drive that can withstand water splashes. The thick and robust edge encases the drive, which makes it shock-resistant and drop proof. This way, the drive is suitable for photographers, video producers, or anyone who wants some extra security when protecting their data. Splashes aren't a threat to this drive, and it still works even if a 1-ton car drives over it. Thanks to the fast USB 3.0, you can transfer large photo collections or video projects from your laptop to your external storage in a few seconds.

Review is 9,5 out of 10.

Spring space, no noise and a beautiful design

You can drive over it with a tank
Matches my hair color
USB-C cable included
I don't know how to pronounce the brand name

Super sturdy external hard drive that a tank can drive over (so to speak). Very fast thanks to USB 3.0 or USB-C. Enough space to store all of YouTube's cat videos locally if you feel like it.

Not exactly Rugged..

Nice compact
Fast
Died suddenly after a year in a laptop bag

Used for over a year as a backup for photos and videos. The hard drive was in my laptop bag (which you have to be careful with, of course). Now after a little over a year, the PC sees that a USB device is connected, but the drive itself makes a beeping sound and is no longer recognized by windows, or recovery software. If a drive doesn't even survive traveling in a laptop bag (and the laptop does without any issues whatsoever) a drive shouldn't have "Rugged" in its name.

Can't take a beating...

"...a fast external hard drive that can take a beating". Well, not so... Fell off the table once, 30cm high and broken. Worthless
