Thread: 80GB portable hard drive

Exclusive Review:- LaCie was one of the first hard drive vendors to offer truly mobile products: compact outdoor drives powered by the host computer so the only fashion accessory you need is the connector cable. The down sides have always been a higher cost than desktop, mains-powered parts, and usually lower capacities and speed.These days, the market's a packed one. After pitching drives intended by the likes of FA Porsche, LaCie's latest mobile drive, the Rugged, is something of a throwback: like the original Pocket Drive, it's wrapped in a rubber surround, the better to help it resist shocks, knocks and bumps.

In care with the name, the Rugged comes in a tan and olive box that suggests outdoor, armed usage. It describes the product within as "all-terrain". Had the Rugged come in a green color - or even disguise styling - it might have worked, but bright, almost glowing orange? No thanks.
At least it won't go lost in fog, I suppose...

i didnt know of portable 500gb unless its the 3.5" one which requires external AC power supply .. for portable 2.5" the max storage i know is 250GB ..

for 3.5" there is 1TB one as well :)

Dang, technology is advancing fast. 1 terabyte hard drives!
Heaven for those media junkie kids.

Thanks for sharing :)

Looks sleek and sexy man.. what is the price

Maybe the price for 80G is low now if the production line isn't stopped.

And LaCie's hard disk is not bad at all.

Apart from capacity, quality is also important too.

looks cool.. but it also looks a little bulky..
whats the price range?
