    Summary: Over two years and still working! 2010-08-13
    Comment: I've had this drive for over two years and bought it when Leopard came out on Mac. I wanted to be able to back up all of my files using time machine and I've had no problems since day 1 with this drive. The design also goes well with my MBP!

    Summary: OK while it lasted 2010-04-21
    Comment: Purchased partly based on good reviews and on the LaCie name - though it was a bit expensive. Very light use for 2 years 1 month. Worked as expected. Then a month after the warranty expired, it failed. I took it apart (being a bit of a geek) and attached it to a laptop using a special adapter cable kit; it worked fine so I recovered the data. What failed was the electronics in the enclosure, not the drive itself so I can re-use the drive in a new enclosure. This is unacceptable reliability - I have much older equipment that is running fine. And most folks who buy drives like this would probably not be able to rescue it on their own.

    Summary: Died after 1 year 2010-04-11
    Comment: I started having problems with this drive 6 months after I bought it.

    Sometimes it wouldn't be recognized by my PC at all.

    Then 1 year from purchase it died completely.

    Thankfully I'm using great backup software which saved all my important files. It's Time Machine for PC's.

    [...].

    I wouldn't stay well away from this drive at all costs and backup regularly whatever drive you are using!

    Summary: Don't count on this drive lasting 2010-03-19
    Comment: Okay, you see the mixed reviews. Some say it's reliable and others say it's crap. Well I thought it was a good deal at the time of purchase and 2.5years later it's dead (code 10). It was my back-up with a lot of data that I could afford to lose (but would have preferred not to lose). Given my experience and the fact that over 1/3 of the reviews are only 1 star, don't risk your data to this drive. I would not recommend this drive to ANYONE!
