Review: Not bad, actually. Seems to work ok with Time Machine. - Product seems to work as described, however seems possibly slower than the Lacie it replaced. Time Machine says its going to take 12 hrs to back up my 1tb internal hard drive. Pretty bad, if this is actually the time it will take. On the other hand, once it makes the initial backup, new backups in theory will take less time. We will see. I have a drive sled with conventional drives and a SATA interface... that may be the fix, and this may get returned. Ok, 1 hr later, and now the IMac says 3 hrs to go... which is not so bad. I will add another star. It actually completed in 2-3 hrs, which is good enough, raised to 4 stars. I will update this review as I learn how the product performs. Update: Product seems to work fine, very similar to the old Lacie it replaced, just more compact. I have it working with time machine on my Mac, and it all seems to function. I will update this review to 5 stars.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What's the difference between this mini and the thunderbolt?**
A: If I understand the question, the only difference between the two drives is that the one you are referencing has a USB 3.0 port, and the other has a Thunderbolt port.  The drives themselves are identical.  If you have a computer with a USB port, of any generation, the drive with the USB 3.0 port will work well with it.  The drive is fastest when it's plugged into a USB 3.0 port, but is backwards compatible with a USB 2.0 port.  The drive with the Thunderbolt port will work only with a computer that also has a Thunderbolt port.  Thunderbolt is faster than USB, but is not yet in really wide use.  Step one:  Determine which ports your computer has.  The LaCie drive itself is a gem, regardless of which port it uses.  (P.S.  Some drives have BOTH USB and Thunderbolt connectivity.)

**Q: Is this a solid-state (flash storage) drive?**
A: I searched Amazon for a LaCie solid state (SSD)  external portable drive and was brought to this page.  Most of the reviews don't mention SSD and it appears that all the reviews for the several different models of this LaCie external drive are combined together. So, 4 people said no, this is not about drives with SSD, and then one person said yes. Far more people are not going to have an SSD model because it's WAY more expensive. Most people will prefer to get one that is in the $150-$250 price range at most. The ones with SSD cost a lot more than that. And worth it too if you have the money because they are so fast, no comparison.  If i scroll up from this Question section, this is what is at the top of the auction page but again these same questions and reviews will show up no matter which model  you search for, with a different name at the top:
LaCie Rugged Thunderbolt and USB 3.0 SSD 1TB Portable Hard Drive LAC9000602

**Q: can i have a new macbook pro. can i get either the thunderbolt usb-c or the usb-c?**
A: A USB-C hard drive is compatible with Thunderbolt 3 ports on a Mac, so this will work. Also works of course with USB-C ports, and older USB 3.0 ports using supplied cable.

**Q: How does usbc differ from the thunderbolt usb-c option? i see thunderbolt usbc is more expensive**
A: USB-C and Thunderbolt 3 share the same physical connection type (USB-C).  USB-C devices can be connected to Thunderbolt 3 ports, as TB3 supports USB-C devices. However, TB3 drives cannot be connected to USB-C ports on computer. So, this USB-C drive will connect to USB-C ports, Thunderbolt 3 ports, or using included cable, USB 3.0/2.0 ports.
