Simplicity and precision
This is an awesome mobile hard drive. The total time frame from opening the package, connecting to my iMac, and backing up my hard drive was about 30 minutes! It’s a nice mini size that I can keep in my desk drawer. Shipping was overnight, well packaged, and the product was received in perfect condition.

Built like a tank and works perfectly with Mac.
Works really well. I use it for my MacBook Time machine backups. Lots of storage space and built like a tank. It’s a little more expensive but it is worth it because of the rugged build.

BEWARE – LaCie/Seagate insists I received a forged/refurbished (not new) hard drive
UPDATE:After this hard drive promptly failed within 5 months of purchase (with very important data that was not recoverable), the hard drive manufacturer Seagate told me directly that Empire Premium Products (AKA JMP Premium Enterprises LLC) **is not an authorized seller of Lacie hard drives and likely sold me a faulty product.** Rather than the drive being under warranty (as advertised) when it failed, the faulty drive was not considered under warranty and not replaceable by the manufacturer (Lacie/Seagate) due to the reasons outlined below:-I purchased this Lacie 5TB Portable External HDD drive on Amazon November of 2023.-It failed April of 2024.-ALL efforts to recover data aside from sending it into the manufacturer were exhausted, so I sent it in to the manufacturer to attempt data recovery.-When the dead/faulty drive was supplied to the Lacie manufacturer (Seagate) to attempt data recovery, Seagate discovered that the internal hard drive **did not match their records for the external serial number,** and therefore the product was likely a forged product (which voided their warranty).-This allowed Seagate to not even attempt data recovery on my drive because the drive itself was fraudulent. I repeat, Seagate insisted that the internal hard drive component DID NOT COINCIDE with the serial number of the external casing (so was likely a refurbished, Frankensteined drive with a recycled exterior casing).—In greater detail, Seagate asked for my original receipt from Amazon, and once they saw the seller name: EMPIRE PREMIUM PRODUCTS, they said this seller is “not an authorized seller” of Lacies, accused the seller of providing me with a “forged” drive, and said that Seagate did not have to attempt to retrieve the data and was not obligated to provide me the originally-promised replacement hard drive due to voided warranty. Seagate insists that they can easily search for the external serial number (on the orange case) in their database, and an internal serial number will be associated to that serial number on file for the external casing. They said, ‘Take it up with the seller.’-Well, the seller (Empire Premium Products) does not have a contact email, only a number (if you want to call China directly), and for clarity, **the support tab for this product goes directly back to Lacie/Seagate, not to Empire Premium Products.**-Ironically, when Lacie/Seagate returned my dead hard drive (after not even attempting data retrieval, they only returned the internal drive component without the external casing). **Seagate says they have “recycled” my external casing (the orange and metal exterior portion) and that’s why they did not send it back to me.*******-Now to me, this is concerning, because anyone with a functioning brain can deduce that a “recycled” orange casing floating around in the world … I don’t know … JUST MIGHT END UP AS ANOTHER EXTERNAL CASING ON A REFURBISHED INTERNAL HARD DRIVE SOLD ON AMAZON.-In an Amazon message stream with Empire Premium Products (AKA JMP Premium Enterprises LLC), they said months ago (July 14, 2024) that they would refund the full amount of the product. From the seller: “We are sorry to hear there has been a problem with your order. Could we offer you a 100 percent refund and you can keep the item?” lol… My response was “A refund is appropriate considering the situation. Thank you.”*****THIS DEFECTIVE, FAULTY, (likely forged/refurbished) PRODUCT ORDER WAS NOT REFUNDED UNTIL January, 28 2025, despite it failing April 2024.-If ZERO stars was available, that is what I would select for this product experience.-I would also give a “Zero Stars” review for the seller, but too much time has passed since the original order and I don’t have the opportunity to review Empire Premium Products (AKA JMP Premium Enterprises LLC).

PRODUTO:Eu comprei o “LaCie Rugged (Robusto) SSD Externo” de 2TB (STHR2000800).O produto é uma fofura, super pequeno e do tamanho da palma da mão (e não é o “Mini Robusto”). Pena que a porta de saída USB-C (lugar onde conecta o cabo que vem junto) do SSD externo não tenha uma tampa de proteção. O que é estranho, pois a LaCie afirma que esse SSD tem o IP67 de segurança, mas com a saída USB-C sem nenhuma vedação, recebe poeira e, se for o caso, água também. Então, não entendo esse selo da LaCie, se é seguro realmente. Bom, eu que não vou correr o risco de testar. Mas a LaCie pecou muito nisso porque recebe sim poeira. O cabo é bom e espesso, o que evita quebra ou rompimento fácil, demonstrando nenhuma fragilidade.O produto em si parece ser bom e não parece apresentar defeitos, mas só com o uso que eu poderei saber e ter certeza, pois eu ainda não efetuei a instalação para usá-lo. Mas ele abriu normalmente no meu computador (Windows 10) para fazer a instalação.AMAZON:A entrega foi super rápida, bem antes do prazo.EMPRESA VENDEDORA (RHA TECH):A empresa que me vendeu o “Rugged SSD Externo” de 2TB da LaCie é séria e comprometida em atender o cliente de forma rápida, ágil e eficaz. O atendimento foi excelente, inclusive o vendedor foi muito rápido e eficiente em me auxiliar. A empresa cumpre com o que promete e atende a todas as especificações do produto anunciado. Sem reclamações. Eu compraria novamente com eles porque demonstraram total confiança e bastante respeito e honestidade com o cliente. Estou muito feliz e satisfeita com a compra!! Muito obrigada a todos!!!
