LaCie Grand 2 TB USB 2.0 Desktop External Hard Drive 301898KUA Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just bought this hard drive. And I must say it's a very good looking hard drive. The hard drives face looks good. Kind of looks like a mans face. Also, the face has a cool looking red light on the front of the hard drive, not to bright folks so don't worry. The drives face and the back has cheap feeling plastic on it. The body of the drive is made out of aluminium. The drive just feels well made. But its a few things you need to know about this drive. I don't know why these dummy's put a very small USB cable in the box. The thing is so small I had to use my camera cable to connect the drive. If you plan on buying the drive make sure you buy a USB mini cable with the drive. The drive has cheap feeling rubber feet on the bottom of the drive, not a big deal for some but for me it is. No reason to have feet that cheap. This drive doesn't come with a stand wish it did because, I don't have a lot of space on the desk. You can set it upright instead of flat.. Just set it between your other hard drives for safety for the drive. The drive has a nice power button on the back so you don't have to leave the drive on all day. Now to the formatting and the software. The software is no where as bad as the WD smartware software. The first thing you want to do is use the LaCie quick setup software, it's soeasy to use. What the software does is quickly formats the hard drive and puts there software and the LaCie manuals on the drive. From here you can just delete the software or use it. If you don't need the software just delete it and your ready to go. I never used the software so I can't tell you about that. I got the drive for about $87 on sale NEW. It was a hell of a deal for that price. I'll update this on reliability in a few months. Only time can tell that.
Update:1
Okay sorry people but I forgot to say:

For those of you that don't know. LaCie doesn't make drives. They make the nice case. The drive thats in the case is a Hitachi HDT721010SLA360 [Hard drive] (1000.20 GB).
