Designed by a gentlemen called Sam Hecht, the Little Disk looks quite attractive with its extendable USB cable and flip off lid and who would know what lies inside the little black box when its not in use. I admit that I wasn’t overly impressed with the design of the last LaCie hard drive my eyes wandered over but LaCie may just have won me over with the Little Disk.
For USB 2.0 only, 80 GB starts at US$90, going up to US$340 for the 500 GB version, whilst the USB/FireWire model starts out at US$130 for 120 GB increasing up to US$400 for 500 GB’s worth of zeros and ones. Pricing depends on the capacity required and connectivity option chosen.
250 GB LACIE HD RUGGED MAC OS
* plays nicely with Windows 2000 upwards and Mac OS 9.x upwards Apparently the encased HDD is Hitachi’s 2.5-inch Travelstar 5K500 with the following specs The unit comes in two flavours, a USB 2.0 connection version and a USB 2.0, FireWire 400/800 version. Aside from the usual specs, the maximum drop height is 90cm and that’s in non-operating mode – apparently dropping is not recommended in operating mode. It offers a scratch-protected (note not resistant) aluminium case along with a shock-resistant rubber bumper in a delicious shade of orange. Worried about some axe-wielding maniac dealing to your external hard drive? You may find some comfort in LaCie’s latest offering the Rugged Hard Disk.
