LaCie Big Disk Extreme+ (2TB) Review

We review the new LaCie LaCie Big Disk Extreme+ (2TB) external hard drive. 2 Terabytes of goodness for under a grand.

Snip:

"LaCie's external hard drives have always been well-built and attractive. The most recent addition to the "Big Disk Extreme+" family is no exception. The LaCie Big Disk Extreme++ 2TB "Professional Hard Drive" has an aluminum body and a sexy brushed metal finish that make it look like it was borne from a Mac Pro desktop computer.

The hard drive itself weighs in at 5.51 lbs., or 2.5 kg. It's pretty heavy — like a thick dictionary or a small sledge hammer. The physical construction is very good — metal all around, clean edges, rounded corners, etc.

Like with most external hard drives, the power adapter for the 2TB Big Disk Extreme++ is a little bulky, though not abnormally so. The overall cord length is about 10 feet. The power adapter that plugs into the back of the enclosure is proprietary, so if you lose or damage your adapter, you'll have to buy another one from LaCie. "
