LACIE D2 Professional 10TB External Hard Drive - Thunderbolt 3 USB-C 3.0, 7200 RPM Enterprise Class Drives for Mac and PC Desktop, STHA10000800, 3.5, Black

I am a LaCie user for more than 11 years, and now, I just purchased a 14TB hard drive, extremely silent and fast. Thanks again

I bought a 2017 27" iMac on day 1. This computer has Thunderbolt 3. I bought this drive (6 TB TB3 model) to start replacing my LaCie drives from 2009. The old LaCie drives (2big USB 2 and d2 USB 3) were still going strong but I figured they're over 8 years old and they've served their purpose. With my good experience with LaCie I decided to go with them again. LaCie quotes the speed to reach 220 MB/s using the included Thunderbolt 3 cable and Thunderbolt 3 port on my drive/iMac. Using Blackmagic test, I got 210 MB/s peak. Speeds were under what LaCie claims but not enough to make me regret the purchase. (I believe Seagate's website claims the drive in my d2 can only do 210 MB/s so I'm not sure why LaCie added an additional 10 MB/S to their claim.) The drive enclosure seems to wick heat away from the drive nicely. I'm using the drive as an encrypted Time Machine backup. The encryption process for a drive this size took ~5 days. During this time, the drive was at 100% usage yet the enclosure only was warm (not hot) and the fan remained silent. The bottom of the drive has a great rubber strip to absorb vibration and noise. It works great! Unfortunately, the Thunderbolt 3 cable can only reach lengths of 1.5 feet at 40 GB/s. You'll have to keep the drive close to the computer. (There are TB3 cables longer than 1.5 feet that claim they can handle 40GB/s but this seems to go outside the official standard. This isn't an issue caused by LaCie but a limitation of any TB3 product that isn't commonly shared. I also like the 5 year warranty and enterprise grade drives in use. Overall, this is a great drive after 1 month of usage.

Received this drive, plugged in the power and nothing, you need to plug in the data cable aswell as the power cable. Then check your USBC, mine was quite difficult to seat properly, actually clicks into the port, very little silver of the connector should be visible. For a while I thought the drive was dead until I tried the USB cable and realized the ubc wasn't seated all the way. So heads up on this issue, almost returned because of it. Otherwise great drive, very good build quality.

É caro como qualquer capacidade de armazenamento que você tentar comprar. Mas vale quanto pesa. É rápido e funciona bem em Macs, não tem nem que formatar. Eu tinha um WD de 4TB antes, mas além de ter de formatar, depois de algum tempo começou a ficar ejetando aleatóriamente, pensei que era um problema do Mac OS, mas não era. De tanto ejetar, ficou danificado e tive que formatar e perdi todos os dados armazenados. Mesmo assim, não funcionou. Aí, depois de pesquisar muito, decidi comprar esse HD da LaCie e até aqui tem funcionado muito bem, muito rápido e estável. Se você trabalha com Macintosh, compre dessa marca. É plug&play, não precisa fazer nenhuma configuração e funciona muito bem.
