I said 100MB/ps was fast 😝 I meant to say 1000 for the titanium micro SSD
The one you can connect to iPad, how do you offload from memory cards to it on iPad? Usb-c hub?
From a guy who works on hard drives for living, I can tell you a few things about your line up.
1. Lacie does not make drives, they make fancy looking yet non effective enclosures. What you will find inside of that LaCie box is a regular 4TB M10 Seagate drive (same as you would find in a native Seagate enclosure but for much less). Orange bumper and metal case are not going to save the drive from mechanical failure in case of impact. Heads will get damaged just as easily as they would in the cheapest option of this drive in this size. It's basically a marketing stunt.
2. SSDs fail for reasons that hard drives do not, so it's kinda apples to oranges comparison. Also ppl should know Samsung voids warranty if you had your device unplugged for more than 2 weeks :). And the best part is that they are basically unrecoverable once the NAND begins to fail.
Imagine a wedding photographer losing undelivered footage due to SSD like that failing? Even if they have business insurance to cover "any costs involved", they would still not find a solution simply because it does not exist.
If the same happened with a hard drive, at least there are many companies who can get the data back and save their business.
I like the titanium piece you showed, but are you sure that the transfer speed is 100mb/s? That's the speed of any modern hard drive and some go even faster. It must be way higher than 100 for portable SSD
Wow! This is one of the most informative comments I’ve gotten on a video. Thanks for the info. I guess I won’t be buying any more LaCie drives. I did make a mistake when I said the titanium micro was 100mb/s it is actually 1000mb/s.
so what is your most recommended drive?
@@maglev_
WD or Toshiba hdd for archiving your files
Samsung or Sandisk ssd for daily use
So what should we get
@@LukeEdwin Lacie are without doubt the worst drives I ever owned. They all literally failed, well the interface, you can take them apart take out the seagate drive and hook it up to another enclosure that works and get your data back. As for that fancy portable orange piece of rubbish, it was the ultimate worst buying decision, failed pretty quickly with messages "copy your files and reformat" which happened many times so was useless and unnerving! Long since been running Western Digital with no issues.. However with Lacie, and this is my favourite saying "your milage may differ" :)
My favorite producer, Colt Capperune, made a video about his opinions on SSDs and HDDs in terms of what to use for backups and as your main external drive for editing (in his case, it was music production). If you use an SSD as your main backup, and it does happen to fail for whatever reason, there is no easy way of getting back almost any of your data. Nowadays, you can send a dead HDD to a specialist, and with there being physical parts that store the data, it will be easier to extract it and recover most, if not all, of your data!! I haven't had this happen myself, but it is something to consider and do some research on!! :)
Why would anyone want a hard drive you can throw around and stamp on! What we want is a relaible hard drive that does not corupt or fail. Hard drives sit on the desk or in a draw we do not need to knock nails in with them!
Agree, most modern hard drives will most likely last a decade if mounted properly or have minimal movement while operating
Big ones are big and bulky take up a lot of space
I have 3 Seagate drives (1, 2 and 4TB) I used everyday for YEARS until I fried one removing it from the computer without 'ejecting' first.
Thanks for the amazing vid and content! Currently rocking a Western Digital 500GB drive, still going strong after 12 years. 🙌
Nice! Since making this video, I’ve switched over to using Western Digital drives for the most part.
Really for proper work you need Three drives. A decent ssd nvme on your computer for running the operating systems and virtualised environments and programs. You then want a decent 4 or 8 TB ssd portable with usb C. Finally a backup solution such as a NAS with a minimum of 3 enterprise grade drives and raid 5. For something nearly indestructible use a fire safe and backup things like wills, bank accounts, digital wallets keys and passwords, with Archive grade BD-R blue ray optical disk with a life of over 20 years guaranteed.
That is a great strategy. SSDs for OS and gaming, to take advantage of better speed and snappiness. Whenever the SSDs decide to suddenly crap out, you have your data backed up on mechanical HDDs. Which are less prone to fail suddenly or catastrophically (ime). And tend to give more warning before they do.
So true about Seagate drive. Mine just died, good i backed up
Plz share the link for the Side cover which you are using in Seagate HDD
The irony here is that Lacey uses Seagate drives for their enclosures...
Nice overview and highlights. I decided to try the Samson ssd. Thanks.
If u have to choose between WD 8TB My Book Desktop HDD and ADATA 5TB HD710 Pro
Which one would be ur choice based on product quality (speed isn't my priority here)
Which one would last longer and less likely to have problems with ( u know I'm one of those people who appreciates good Warranty Services but wish to never need it)
I bought a Lacie Rugged USB-C 4TB SSD for my Mid2011 iMac. I wanted a bootable drive, and I am finding out that I can't connect it threw Thunderbolt 1. I bought a adapter & Thunderbolt 2 cable and still no luck. I am to test this on a computer at work see if this is a compatibility maybe a dead hard drive.
I’ve just switched to the Samsung t7, sooooo fast
The zest is insane
WD Internal Black drive in external enclosure.. I just bought a 1tb drive for less than $40… brand new! Orico enclosure is about $20
♥️I can't figure out what route to go on black friday I bought 2, 18 to drives for 700. I feel like it's a good deal but one was dead on arrival and it made me think I have made a mistake. All the wd drives I've ever owned failed the lacie drives I've had last about 6 years before issues started. I'll keep u updated on the 18 tb drives they are Seagate I'd drop a link but I'm sure that youtube would delete my comment if I did that. 😄 thanks for review
I'm looking at the WD P10 4TB or 4TB my passport, for me honestly an SSD all of the transfer speeds in the durability are a lot better I just can't give that much for a 4 TB and I don't want to have to continually switch my games back and forth from drives so an SSD just isn't going to do what I want so I was looking at the HHDs do you have any recommendations on the two I'll ask about
💚 Good info !
Great reviews, Bro.
I concur the Samsung SSD is the best pick for the majority of users.
La Cie is actually a pun. The parent company is Seagate, and La Cie is French for "The Company". The enclosed chip is called a "FireCuda", which presumably is some sort of mythical sea monster. Lol. 🌊
Firecuda is one of the seagates hard drive brands, mainly a sshd kind of line up, I have mixed opinions on those drives
need to show us how to use cables with the LaCei Drive
Thank you!
The LaCie 4tb hard drive looks good I am thinking about it
I have a question...can you still record up to 1 hour of gameplay with a 500GB external hard drive? Please reply, thank you :)
My seagate worries me, I am paranoid it's going to stop working and your comments didn't reassure me, was yours pre-owned? what was it called exactly? they have some with "expansion" written on them, was it sdd? hdd?
I had my seagate die on me as well, never again.
I also had a few Seagate drives die very early… never again…
What would you recommend for dvr recording
Wow your price quotes are way off according to Amazon. Am I missing something???
Hi, what can you use if you have no PC/ out in the field and you want to back up your photos?
I never experienced a HDD not working anymore. My Xbox one once felt from like 4ft and it still works fine. However the store is now full on my Xbox so that's why I'm watching this video. Kinda ironic 😂
I love the Samsung SSD 500 GB
"Hard Drive"
Shows SSD.
smh
What’s the difference?
@@__dynamit3661structure. Hard drive is disc, ssd is the usual flash memory stick
@@__dynamit3661 A hard drive is a device that has an arm that physically writes data to a spinning disk. An SSD or “Solid State Drive” has no moving parts, meaning you can for the most part be a little less careful with them.
Lacie is Seagate
Yaaaay
Had two Lacies both packed up total rubbish
In your opinion, is it better to store tons of word document files on an External hard drive or USB to save space on computer?
Anything is better than USB Drive due to lifespan and speed (read and write especially the terrible random access)
Why not both? They're so small you could literally copy and paste them to any storage mediums you have lying around.
In my experience, USB sticks are more reliable than HDDs. Think I've only had one out of like 12 fail on me over the span of more than 15 yrs or so. Read something about a guy that lost one in his car for 15+ yrs as well, exposed to extreme temperature fluctuations all that time too. Found it one day and it still worked!
I would say store them on a HDD and USB. If it's important data, HDDs typically give more warning before they fail and data is more easily recoverable from them if something goes wrong. SSDs, from what I've read... when they go, they go. Very little warning and low chance of data recovery.
it doesn't sound like you actually know what you're talking about tbh. no offense
First of all you need to understand what Hard Drive means
First
Wow this was useless…
I use the unionsine to use Microsoft flight simulator
