The chassis is built from 3mm-thick aluminum with a beautiful brushed finish and there’s a black strip that juts out down the two long sides. This LaCie external hard drive was created in collaboration with Porsche Design, and that high design flavor permeates the device. Much of what differentiates devices such as these, particularly when they’re similarly-spec’d-they won’t be blowing the doors off of any benchmarks here-is the software that’s on board, which is something we’ll look at in the following pages. They range from 750GB to 1TB in size and, as it happens, all three are compact and highly portable. All three of the units in our test bank employ the speedy USB 3.0 interface, which is a standard option for many drives, and of course they’re all backwards compatible with USB 2.0. We looked at a few external hard drives with similar specs from some major manufacturers to see how they stack up against one another. These days, the storage capacity on a typical and relatively inexpensive external hard drive is large 1TB is a standard size, and it isn’t at all uncommon to see 2TB drives, too. You have to appreciate a good external hard drive that faithfully ferries important data from one place to another, while safely stashed on a drive that’s wrapped inside a slick-looking, durable chassis.
