Bin holder several over the years acquired Lacie hard drives that I have previously always perceived as premium products. After enormous difficulties with already the last Lacie buy - inconstant occurring hardware failure, narrow-minded online support, finally prevailed after about 6 months with a personal touch for managing change Germany - 6 Months of trouble and a lot of work. Now with the current Lacie back problems - brings inconstant during data transmission more it tried newer Macs to crash and can only be described as unstable working. MacConnect has the plate returned as "OK". Problem is still there. Next week I'll send them back to MacConnect. After Google search LaCie Quality has probably subsided massively in recent years. The second time extremely frustrating, so I'm probably not alone, show how appropriate Internet reports also. No more Lacie and never more MacConnect.
