With the Little Disk, LaCie continues its tradition of corralling famous designers, from Neil Poulton to Karim Rashid, to put their imprimatur on a portable hard drive. The 120 GB Little Disk, designed by Sam Hecht, is indeed stylish, but its performance could be better. Design Sam Hecht, who has designed award-winning products from coffee makers to sofas, applied his deft touch to the Little Disk. The result is a mini monolith: a flat, glossy black surface and a cap that covers up the two FireWire ports and USB 2.0 dongle plug (a cheaper version, which sells for $89.99, omits the two FireWire ports). A single blue light glows on the rear of the unit when it’s plugged in, a tribute to its simplicity and minimalist design. There’s a quick-launch button just above the FireWire ports that can be used for launching a single application.
