																	Lacie rugged thunderbolt 1tb 2 5 review. 
									
																	The lacie rugged usb 3 0 thunderbolt still manages to be a first though. 
																	The lacie rugged usb 3 0 available at a street price of 299 99 msrp and is protected by a two year limited warranty. 
																	We tested the less capacious unit. 
																	It is also available in 500gb 1tb and 1 5tb capacities as well as 1tb and 1 5tb mini formats. 
															
													
									
																	9000294 2tb item number. 
																	It s the first bus powered usb 3 0 portable thunderbolt drive that uses a solid state drive ssd as its storage. 
																	4 ft 1 2m lacie rugged ssd 1tb sthr1000800. 
																	Lacie s rugged ssd comes in three capacities. 
															
													
									
																	500gb 1tb and 2tb. 
																	Again this comes down to the fact that the maximum speed of a mechanical hard drive doesn t even come close to saturating a usb 3 connection so paying for usb 3 1 hardware would have no benefit at all but. 
																	We will be looking at the 2tb model for this review. 
																	1 usb c usb 3 0 compatible 125mb s drops. 
															
													
									
																	Read honest and unbiased product reviews from our users. 
																	Lacie has used a seagate hard drive the st2000lm007 which is a mobile hdd with a 7mm profile and that explains why the device is so small. 
																	The lacie rugged ssd pro is available in 1tb 400 and 2tb 700 capacities the same prices as samsung s x5. 
																	For example this lacie rugged thunderbolt usb c drive we are looking at today is usb c enabled but the usb c port is simply using the usb 3 standard and not the newer usb3 1 standard.
