What's Hot

Rugged case design, fast read/write times, bus-powered, triple interface

What's Not

Little accompanying software, only 'rugged' while turned off

The Final Word

The LaCie Rugged All-Terrain Hard Drive isn’t built to withstand a nuclear holocaust, but it provides better protection than standard portable hard drives. We were impressed with the read/write times and the fact that it can provide 500GB of hard drive space powered by USB.
