LaCie: making life easier for photographers
Seagate subsidiary LaCie has an unspoken credo of "making life easier for photographers." Take their new LaCie Portable SSD. What if you need a reliable and mobile device to transfer archives? 500 GB flash drives meet the requirements of mobility, but they are expensive, and it is difficult to call them reliable. And external HDDs are quite large, you definitely won’t put one in your pocket. Yes, and the speed of his turtle. It's one thing to quickly copy a movie to a couple of gigabytes, and another thing to transfer an archive with sources to a couple of hundred gigabytes. Actually, SSD LaCie Portable easily solves all these problems.
Sturdy and stylish body
This is a stylish and compact (dimensions 94x79x9 mm) premium gadget with a traditionally interesting design for LaCie. The minimalistic black rectangular case is made of textured plastic that is pleasant to the touch, does not collect fingerprints and, as shown by the experience of wearing in a backpack with a bunch of other electronics, is scratch resistant. Perhaps he was scratched somewhere, but this is completely invisible to the fine texture. But after a year or two of use, many external drives look like battered war veterans. The case itself is assembled on a solid five, thanks to thick plastic and stiffeners, the case does not bend. According to the manufacturer, LaCie Portable can easily withstand a fall from a height of two metres. Let's take their word for it.
Thought out to the smallest detail
In terms of speed, the drive shows exactly what you expect from an external SSD with 3D TLC NAND memory: 485 MB / s for sequential writes and 522 MB / s for reading. Of course, this is not the hyper-speed of modern NVMe drives, but it is enough to work with files directly from the SSD. Drivers for a quick start in Windows and Mac operating systems are recorded on the disk itself. After installation, he will offer to download the proprietary LaCie Toolkit utility, which allows you to organize a shared backup, mirror the necessary folders on your computer, or integrate the SSD into the proprietary Apple Time Machine backup utility. Another plus for convenience is a pair of branded USB cables USB A — USB-C and USB-C — USB-C, so you don't have to buy additional adapters. Typically, all reviews of LaCie products end with a conclusion in the spirit of "cool, but expensive." But not today. In east european stores, the model costs a little more than popular models of this class from Samsung, Transcend or Kingston.
