It is a disease LaCie? I have 6 LaCie drives for more 5TB, purchased since 2007, always loyal to the brand because no problems with the actual disks. For cons, I've had to buy 6 (six) replacement supplies. The drive stops more or less gradually run, this is NOT the drives, but the power supplies that drop. So I have to add 20-30 new power 1 or 2x a year. Say, Mr. LaCie, you could not make a bit more resistant your power supplies? Otherwise, the discs are very good. This is the main. But ... what alims wound.
