My drive failed only half way through its two year guarantee period. Lacie do not offer any data recovery only repair. I then found out that they will not honor their guarantee even after a specialist data recovery firm using all the required clean rooms recover the data. This means that all my data is either gone or I have to pay nearly £1000 for the data recovery and then pay again for the drive to be repaired.
With these drives they house 2x 500gb drives and this means twice the price for data recovery.
On speaking to the data recovery experts they have seen a huge increase in Lacie drives being sent in due to failure and have advised that these do not handle the data well they should do. Very Poor

Quick review of LaCie Desktop Hard Disk 1 TB
What I liked? Color of course.... it is the colorless black!
What I disliked? Everything else..... it is plain stupid product.... I wouldnt recommend anyone to buy it....
I bought it two months ago and it is down to dust already....
LaCie or Maxtor who cares.... these bastards don't keep up their guarantees nor pay for data retrieval.... there lies the entire hoax....
by the way I actually bought a 1TB Maxtor basic and am gonna rant about its ill performance everywhere I land with a disreputable 1TB experience..
And yeah .... I wanted to give no star for the rating, but a data entry error comes up.... ...
