## Description

Rugged USB-C external hard drive with 2TB capacity, fast 5Gb/s data transfers, and drop, shock, dust, and rain resistance for reliable storage on the go.

Review: Good quality. Highly recommended - I already own LaCie hard drives; 4gb Thunderbolt, 20gb 5Big Thunderbolt so, when I needed a portable drive for backing up photos and videos whilst on assignment, LaCie was my first choice. I’ve used this drive throughout the year with absolutely no issues. It’s quick enough, and has never left me down as a backup when out and about. The rubber protective skin is handy for some protection if you were to drop it. There’s not much else to say other than, if you need a portable external drive, you should seriously consider this. If I needed an additional drive I’d buy another one of these.
Review: A good hard drive - This is the 3rd one I have purchased they are great and mobile

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What's the difference between this mini and the thunderbolt?**
A: If I understand the question, the only difference between the two drives is that the one you are referencing has a USB 3.0 port, and the other has a Thunderbolt port.  The drives themselves are identical.  If you have a computer with a USB port, of any generation, the drive with the USB 3.0 port will work well with it.  The drive is fastest when it's plugged into a USB 3.0 port, but is backwards compatible with a USB 2.0 port.  The drive with the Thunderbolt port will work only with a computer that also has a Thunderbolt port.  Thunderbolt is faster than USB, but is not yet in really wide use.  Step one:  Determine which ports your computer has.  The LaCie drive itself is a gem, regardless of which port it uses.  (P.S.  Some drives have BOTH USB and Thunderbolt connectivity.)

**Q: Is this a solid-state (flash storage) drive?**
A: I searched Amazon for a LaCie solid state (SSD)  external portable drive and was brought to this page.  Most of the reviews don't mention SSD and it appears that all the reviews for the several different models of this LaCie external drive are combined together. So, 4 people said no, this is not about drives with SSD, and then one person said yes. Far more people are not going to have an SSD model because it's WAY more expensive. Most people will prefer to get one that is in the $150-$250 price range at most. The ones with SSD cost a lot more than that. And worth it too if you have the money because they are so fast, no comparison.  If i scroll up from this Question section, this is what is at the top of the auction page but again these same questions and reviews will show up no matter which model  you search for, with a different name at the top:
LaCie Rugged Thunderbolt and USB 3.0 SSD 1TB Portable Hard Drive LAC9000602

**Q: can i have a new macbook pro. can i get either the thunderbolt usb-c or the usb-c?**
A: A USB-C hard drive is compatible with Thunderbolt 3 ports on a Mac, so this will work. Also works of course with USB-C ports, and older USB 3.0 ports using supplied cable.

**Q: How does usbc differ from the thunderbolt usb-c option? i see thunderbolt usbc is more expensive**
A: USB-C and Thunderbolt 3 share the same physical connection type (USB-C).  USB-C devices can be connected to Thunderbolt 3 ports, as TB3 supports USB-C devices. However, TB3 drives cannot be connected to USB-C ports on computer. So, this USB-C drive will connect to USB-C ports, Thunderbolt 3 ports, or using included cable, USB 3.0/2.0 ports.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality. Highly recommended

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A good hard drive
*by A***L on 17 July 2025*

This is the 3rd one I have purchased they are great and mobile

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Has completely rejuvenated my mid-2011 iMac - it's like having a new computer
*by W***R on 6 August 2017*

This device has completely rejuvenated my mid-2011 iMac. Having installed the operating system onto the SSD, the iMac boots in about 40 seconds, compared to about 4 minutes when it was running off the internal hard drive. It's like having a new computer, and the applications open almost instantaneously too. The spinning beachball, indicating a hanging program, is now a thing of the past. I cannot recommend this SSD enough for this reason. (But it must be pointed out that it won't do the same for every machine - only if the computer has a Thunderbolt connection.) For anyone wanting to do the same as me, I recommend the Twelve South BackPack for iMac (https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00C1C1WU2/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_4), which, though rather expensive, provides a very neat solution for stowing the SSD. I use my iMac as a TV quite a lot, and need to spin it round by 45 degrees or so, and with the shelf, the SSD goes too.
