Lacie 1TB Neil Poulton Hard Drive (USB 2.0) Review

ByMike Moffit

Do you have a massive media collection clogging your Mac’s internal hard drive, and are looking to free up some space? The Neil Poulton designed Lacie 1TB Hard Drive may be your perfect solution. Featuring a high speed USB 2.0 connection and a tremendous amount of space, this external drive is a great value.

The drive includes everything you need to get started to either back up your data, or store your extra files. All cables are included, and all the drive needs to operate is a spare A/C outlet and a free USB port on your Mac. Transfer speeds were surprisingly fast and consistent due to the 7200 RPM speed of the drive. The drive’s design is very simple, and it sits nicely on top of a desk or in a media cabinet.

I nicknamed mine “Monolith” after the similarly designed black rectangle in Kubrick’s 2001. I use this hard drive on a daily basis and have nothing but the best to say about it. My only complaint is that the blue access LED can get annoying when using the drive in a dark room for extended periods of time.
