The Rugged All-Terrain withstands bumps and shocks to keep your data safe and secure.

Ultra-Portable Data Shuttle
If you travel a lot with your data, the Rugged All-Terrain is the drive is for you. Perfect for users who need backup, storage and large-volume exchange for office files, photos, music and even video clips, the Rugged All-Terrain is bus-powered, which means that it uses the power of the connected computer to operate and doesn't require an additional AC adapter or power cord.

Three Interfaces for Fast Connections
The Rugged All-Terrain offers speed and versatility with three connection interfaces, letting you use it with almost any computer. The FireWire 800 interface allows for a blistering 800 Mbps data transfer speed, perfect for video editing and other intensive work. FireWire 400 is also supported, which has long been a favorite of Mac users and provides 400 Mbps speeds. The nearly universal USB 2.0 interface is supported as well, which offers a transfer rate of up to 480 Mbps, and is backwards compatible with USB 1.1.

With its driver-free and plug-and-play functionality, exchanging data between Macs and PCs is as easy as it gets--simply plug it into any computer with a USB port and you're ready to go. (The Rugged All-Terrain requires no extra drivers for Windows XP/2000/Vista and Mac OS X operating systems.) It even comes with a power-sharing cable for low-powered USB hubs and computers.

The drive features a spin speed of 5400 rpm, an 8 MB cache, and a transfer rate of up to up to 480 Mbits per second. Measuring a mere 3.5 x 1 x 5.7 inches (WxHxD) and weighing less than nine ounces, the Rugged All-Terrain is designed to travel and will fit easily in your briefcase or backpack. Take it with you on business trips and vacations, or use it for transferring files from one desktop computer to another.

Included with the drive are LaCie software bundles to enhance its performance and functionality, including LaCie's 1-Click Backup Software (for Mac and PC) and SilverKeeper Backup Software (Mac).

Mobile, All-Terrain Protection
Designed exclusively for LaCie by world-renowned designer Neil Poulton, the Rugged All-Terrain is built like an off-road vehicle, ready to withstand the bumps and bruises of your travels. Its unique, scratch-protected aluminum shell and shock-resistant rubber bumper make it especially resistant to harsh elements. In fact, the drive is designed to withstand vertical drops of up to 35 inches while in non-operating mode. (Dropping the drive while it's in operation, however, could cause damage, so be careful!)

For additional styling points, the Rugged All-Terrain can be outfitted with additional colorful bumpers that will keep your drive protected. Easy-to-change and durable once on, they are made of the same quality rubber as the original bright orange Rugged sleeve. The optional set of three additional bumpers, which is sold seperately, includes green-grey, blue-grey and black bumpers.

The LaCie Rugged All-Terrain Portable Hard Drive is backed by a 2-year limited warranty.

- Definitely recommend for students or other users that need portability
I was sort of forced into buying this particular drive because I really wanted a decent sized drive with firewire 800 capability and this seemed like the only one available. So far, it's been working great, both as a time machine backup system and a scratch disk for my Adobe programs. I wiped the Lacie default software and disk image, so I can't really review its right-out-of-the-boxness, but I will say it's fast, quiet, cool compact, sturdy, and it works. The -1 star is only because the only rubber ... Read More

- Compact, Capacious, Fast: A Great External Drive for Work on the Go
I'm using this drive as a replacement for a full-size external 500 GB drive and it's excellent! I take this drive everywhere I take my laptop, and the small size and weight and lack of bulky power brick make it MUCH MUCH easier to pack up and tote around. With FireWire and the transfer rate of the 500 GB SATA drive mechanism, I don't notice any performance difference between this and the 3.5" mechanism I was using previously -- something which was definitely not true of the 160 GB USB mobile drive that ...

- Lacie 250GB Rugged H-drive
I haven't put it under extensive use but so far it seems to be very rugged and has performed flawlessly backing up a pc laptop. The extra ports are great and give faster options. I would definitely use this as a direct to disk option using a laptop and firewire video camera. It also runs great off of bus power using any of the available ports. I would highly recommend this drive.

- It works as it should
I have had the drive for for less than one week but on day one I copied 100 GB of video files to the drive. It was quick using the FireWire 800 cable. The drive seems to be very sturdy and well built. I like it much better than the Western Digital Passport drives that I have used in the past. I have had 3 out of 5 WD drives fail. I hope that this one will give me better results.

- Good Device
This is based off of my experience with a 250 GB version.
It worked well for a long time. It is rugged.

One problem: the USB input on the drive itself became loose and eventually just fell off inside.

Bought a replacement shell to fix the problem, but for something so "rugged" it sure did have a weak USB connection to the silicon board inside.

Maybe they fixed it in this version!
