Introduction

In the world of high-volume data storage, there are two types of hardware providers: those that pawn off cheap, short-lifespan solutions with risky parts and those that offer high quality, reliable hardware and back it up with a friendly, accessible support team. LaCie, located just outside Portland, Oregon, has been proudly offering a wide array of hard drives since 1987. LaCie drives are typically avant-garde in design, and their newest two-terabyte drive (the Big Disk Extreme++ 2TB) is no exception. Featuring two 7,200rpm 1TB hard drives in RAID 0, USB 2.0, Firewire 400 and Firewire 800, and 64MB of cache memory, the 2TB drive is about as good as it gets. We ran the 2TB drive through a series of tests to see how it would perform. Read on to find out how well it did and whether or not the drive would be useful for you.

“I have three of these. One a working drive, one an onsite backup, and one an offsite backup. Hopefully this should take care of the extra risk associated with using a raid 0 drive. I get consistant read/write speeds of about 46 MB/s.The only problem I...” More...
