USB 3:0 Cable included Great drive!
Great device for extra storage. I recently purchased a MacBookPro but it only had 128GB storage as I edit photos this wouldn't work out. So I already had in mind an external drive.The LaCie is simple and easy to use. Just plug in and drag and drop files onto it. Check they have copied, then dump files off your hard drive.I've had LaCie drives in the past and never experienced any failures.The unit is small and compact. It comes well packed and supplied with a USB 3.0 cable! YES CABLE INCLUDED. I emphasise this as the description doesn't lead you to believe this: yet Amazon encourage you to buy one - or at least it suggests others buy a USB cable.Tips for set up. If you want to register your drive as part of the set up. Then pull back the rubber bumper at the end the cable plugs in. (Not when attached to the computer) this is where the serial number is.When you plug it in you'll get a nice icon on your desktop (like pictured) and use the quick start icon to set it up.Remember when you've finished copying and done. Then click on the LaCie drive icon and drag to your trash bin to eject. If you fail to eject the drive it can possibly cause problems.It also appears to be a moving hard drive, I wasn't sure if this when I bought it. Not that it bothers me massively as its sold as a rugged drive. However the next purchase will be solid state as no moving parts. Aside from this for the price you can't go wrong. I wouldn't buy a cheaper drive as it is your data you are backing up / storing!

Good quality. Highly recommended
I already own LaCie hard drives; 4gb Thunderbolt, 20gb 5Big Thunderbolt so, when I needed a portable drive for backing up photos and videos whilst on assignment, LaCie was my first choice. I’ve used this drive throughout the year with absolutely no issues. It’s quick enough, and has never left me down as a backup when out and about. The rubber protective skin is handy for some protection if you were to drop it. There’s not much else to say other than, if you need a portable external drive, you should seriously consider this. If I needed an additional drive I’d buy another one of these.

Brilliant, robust and compact
This product is brilliant, I would recommend using the app/software in addition so that it transfers all data from the computer to the storage device without having to do it manually. The design of it means I don’t need to be too fearful of damaging it, which is important for myself as a student who needs to ensure all my work is safely backed up. It is much better value for money to buy the one with more storage but due to money availability I didn’t. However, I am still nowhere near to using all the storage space so for me the larger storage capacity is not necessary.I would note that it is important not to lose the cables which connect it to the laptop/computer, which could cause inconvenience but is not the end of the world and can be replaced.
