## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great little external drive for backing up the laptop; small but mighty.
*by D***F on August 9, 2025*

this was recommended to me by a friend who retired from a career in computer science. It is fantastic. very easy to use, I didn't need to go through the whole process and registration. Just plug and go; the directions for setting up various plans for back up are right on the screen and I've put the icon on the task bar. It has more than enough capacity for the typical computer user and has backed up my whole laptop. I have it on continous back up. Am very pleased with this.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reliable, Tough, and Fast – My Go-To Portable Drive
*by J***E on July 21, 2025*

This is my third LaCie Rugged, and it continues to impress. I use it primarily for backing up video footage and large photo libraries, and the transfer speeds over USB 3.0 are consistently fast and stable. What really sets this drive apart is the build—it's survived multiple trips in my backpack, a couple drops, and even a coffee spill (not kidding). The orange bumper might not be subtle, but it's instantly recognizable and protective. Whether you're a creative professional or just want reliable storage on the go, this drive delivers both performance and peace of mind. Worth every penny.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid product all-around
*by A***. on September 7, 2025*

It is a good product, lightweight, with no issues, and easy to set up. Would recommend.
