The drive features USB 2.0, FireWire 400, FireWire 800, and eSATA interfaces, ensuring compatibility with any computer or drive. USB 2.0 offers up to a 480 Mbps transfer rate, while eSATA provides superior transfer speeds of up to 1500 Mbps. And the two FireWire ports will let you daisy chain a second drive easily. These connections give you the versatility to connect directly to a drive via the eSATA connection while you're working on demanding multi-media applications, while still having the ability to transfer or back up data files from your laptop or other computers via the USB or FireWire connections. Superior Drive Performance for Power Users
The d2 Quadra is an ideal drive for power users such as video editors and was voted the 2007 Hard Disk of the Year by VideoMaker magazine. The drive features a rotational speed of 7200 rpm and a cache of at least 16 MB. Coupled with the eSATA interface, the drive achieves an average seek time (write) of under 10 ms. This speed makes it fast enough for working with media such as sound and video directly on the drive. With a capacity of 750 GB, the d2 Quadra can hold up to 52 hours of DV video or 263,000 songs or 750,000 photos. If you purchase multiple drives, they can be set to RAID 1 for data redundancy and protection, or RAID 0 for even greater speed. The d2 Quadra also offers three power management options: "Auto" for energy efficiency; "On" for instant access; and "Off" for data protection. A smart fan automatically turns on and off depending on the temperature, ensuring that the drive stays cool and quiet. The drive also lets you back up files or launch any application with a simple push of the front blue button. This "shortcut button" can be configured to launch any document or application, or initiate the included EMC Retrospect Express software that offers automated backups. Smart, Elegant Design
With the d2 Quadra, LaCie's designers have fashioned a versatile, attractive and sturdy drive that offers several space-saving options for stacking. The durable aluminum casing offers excellent heat dissipation, and thanks to the drive's detachable stand, it can be placed vertically to save space, or horizontally to stack multiple drives. The drive can even be rack-mounted to fit into an audio/video setup. Measuring a slim 1.7 x 6.3 x 6.8 inches (WxHxD), and weighing 3.31 pounds, the drive is compact enough to fit inside your briefcase for those times you need to transfer files between computers.

Great product. Only complaint is that it arrived formatted with only about 690 GB available. Seems like a lot of overhead. E-mailed tech support and did not get a response. Other than that it is really fast and with firewire II acts like an internal drive. A bit noisy.

I've done my research before I purchased this model and I'm pretty satisfied so far. i've registered the model on LaCie website (just in case) and I've had no problems with it since I bought it. the only thing I did not like is the base which I don't use. I lay it on its side (safer for the data) and I wish they had 2 bases so I can elevated it but I'm cool with it.

I've had the drive for about a couple of months.
The drive seems to work just fine and not real loud. Stout case.

This is a pretty good hard drive. Quiet and fast with Firewire 800. This is my first LaCie hard drive and I have no complain about it, except it comes with nearly 700GB capacity. It's pretty far away from 750GB as it claims. Also, this drive does not work with Windows unless you reformat it to Windows compatible format. Otherwise, it works perfectly fine with Mac.

Bought this 5 weeks ago. It suddenly started sounding like a locomotive & failed. Will not start again. Cheap Samsung hard disk inside. Don't buy this piece of garbage. I lost all my data.
