[phral_ralph]

which of the two External Hard Drive brand is sexy, durable, fast. maxtor one touch or lacie?

[patmartires]

i have a Lacie 40gig external portable firewire drive.. dunno if its better than Maxtor but its got a rubber guard around it to safeguard it from bumps etc.. and the name alone makes it sound sexy..

say it.. LACIE.. :blush: hehe,,.. sexy aint it?

i have a Lacie 250 gig, definitely it is better than maxtor!

Was looking around for an external about 3 months ago and heard that the Maxtor was buggy! Have't heard anything bad about the LaCie drives yet.

Same here I have 160gb Lacie External HDD and the people in the Apple Store here personally told me to get it over the Maxtor One-Touch

I've had a LaCie 250GB external drive for a year now and I have yet to experience problems with it. I also have a 500GB model, it can get a little noisy and vibrates a lot when its being turned on or written.

i opened up my lacie 250 gb and found a maxtor drive inside... :P

Just chanced upon the Iomega 250 gig HD / Firewire in megamall, selling for 18.9k ata. it's worth a look, they completely redesigned the outer casing. Anyone here using this drive instead?

Saw it there also!


Btw, anybody knows how much Lacie is compared with Maxtor recently? :shy:

Also, aside from being an external back-up drive, could you boot your OS directly from this also? :embarrased:


Thanks.
