Most reliable backup

I have a 1TB Time C This is one of two of the same model I have owned for the past 2 years, and they have both performed flawlessly for daily staggered backups. I have a 1TB Time Capsule too, but based on its reliability, I'm not optimistic about a long life. What convinced to buy the first one was that the Apple Store employees were using them out on the floor. This Lacie drives works easily with Time Machine and the older Apple Backup software. I highly recommend it.

It's rugged enough so that I don't have to worry about the bumps and grinds of everyday use. It's compact and has an excellent choice of interfaces. The speeds are awesome. So five stars on all of the above.

Cable keeps falling out!

The insertion depth of the cable to the drive must be less than 1mm. So rugged, yet a gentle breeze will drop the cable, disconnecting the drive.

It may be a good drive if you can keep it connected, but infuriorating otherwise. Test your aggression levels with this mood destroyer. I wanted it for my photography when out on a trip, definitely rather get anything else.

I only bought it because it was late on a Sunday afternoon, and it's all my local Apple store had that had some protection. Almost immediately, I discovered that the connector cable was so loose that it slipped out constantly. Then the drive wouldn't read on my MacBook Pro or my Mini. I thought it was the USB ports. Wrong-o. The repair person rolled his eyes when I brought my Mini in for repair. He informed me that the LaCie was nothing but trouble. Do NOT buy this thing. You will regret it.
