500Gb Wireless External Hard Drive

We have a 500gb External Hard Drive that has been excellent. I'm taking more video so wanted a new one that had more space. Compared to the older 500gb it feels much smaller even though dimensions are roughly the same. TONS of storage.

Excellent External hard drive.

I use it as an external hard drive for photos.

I have been looking for a way to store my laptop charger, external hard drive, SD cards and wireless headphones in my bag and this Tech Pouch is just the right size. I was looking at other options from other companies that where a similar colour size and price. But in the end the lifetime warranty sold me.

Bought to use on an internal hard drive, to make it and external hard drive.

For several years I have been using the small Samsung USB-C external drives (almost credit-card sized) -- I used two 500GB and one 1TB drives along with Carbon Copy Cloner and my MacBook Air. That worked well (although the 1TB became corrupted and unusable about 3 months ago) and I would especially back up the drive before any flight and separate the drive from my laptop at TSA. I just upgraded to a (wonderful!) MacBook Pro 14 and attempted a Migration Assistant transfer from the Air using a fresh Samsung backup. I let it run for about 8 hours and it never got past the first Looking for applications and documents... stage. To cut to the chase: I thus ordered this 500GB LaCie drive and did a fresh CCC backup from the MB Air. It took 7 minutes to backup 400GB of data! Using the Samsung with USB-C it would take 13 mins for ~22GB. (See screenshot of CCC logs.) I hooked the LaCie up to the MB Pro and started Migration Assistant. The whole process took ~15 minutes. Previously it would take hours. Sorry for rambling on. TLDR; A wicked fast external drive worth every penny. And Thunderbolt makes a huge difference!
