LaCie should bring SSD. Mechanical disks are obsolete already!
[doublepost=1493998413][/doublepost]I have used LaCie drives for over 10 years now and have 20TB of storage on various Lacie devices. I have just had my first disk failure on a disk that has been running almost constantly for four years. It was a mirrored drive in a RAID 1 setup so no catastrophe with zero data loss and Seagate are replacing it for free. I love their simplicity and design and I found their service second to none.Not a Lacie fan, had two of their drives in my time and both failed. I prefer to go the route of NAS, far more reliable, accessible outside the network and for most people is more than fast enough 150 MB/s over wifi. I totally get video editors who want faster speeds but for most people they're just backing up pictures and archiving on such a disk and they're vastly over spec'd. Personally I would use an SSD USB 3 drive, edit the video project and then archive to cheaper spinning media on a network device so it can be accessed anywhere anytime if needed later on.
i would love a feature to automatically download every photo/data off an external card as soon as you plug it in.
just save everything to /CardName/DateAndTime, then blink to inform that transfer is over. boom.
Anyone hear any rumors as to when this will drop? It's summer and I'm keep waiting![]()

They did have a range of SSD options, but not anymore. What happened?
Lacie lists that "No matter what Thunderbolt interface your computer runs on, the LaCie 2big Dock will connect to it via the Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to Thunderbolt 2 adapter." Does that really mean you could hook a Thunderbolt 2 computer up to this unit? Because if that is the case that is pretty darn cool.
