Apple Usb Flash Drive Macbook Air

I bought an Apple disc drive to rip music from a CD for my Apple MacBook Air, and it wouldn't work with my other dongle. I bought this attachment and was able to import my CD no problem!

Although I can't reach the full speed of this drive, since my MacBook Air is only USB 3.1, it is still far faster than any spinning platter drive I have used. The price was highly competitive too.

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!

The LaCie 1big Dock is a super device. It provides expansion capability for my MacBook Air which is needed due to only having 2 Thunderbolt 3 ports on the Air. I especially like the Display Port 1.4 output on the 1big Dock. And the addition of the USB port on the front is a big plus. I can connect my USB 3.x devices to the MacBook Air with ease. I don't need enormous storage so the 4tb 1big Dock was enough storage for my needs. I was able to re-format the drive into 2 partitions. One for Time Machine and another for data storage. Very easy to reconfigure the drive in the 1big Dock. I am very happy with the LaCie products I use. I also have a LaCie Rugged USB drive I use to transfer files. I will continue to use LaCie products on my Mac devices. Very happy with the design and functionality of the LaCie products.

This flash drive doubled the drive space of my MacBook Air for a fraction of the price of a SSD. As a bonus, the computer still fits in its sleeve/case since the SanDisk drive is so small.

I'm using this with my new Apple MacBook Pro Retina. The USB 3.0 is blazing fast. Copying files to and from the Mac's built-in SSD is very quick. The drive is quiet and discreet. I like this drive so far.

I got this USB-C flash drive for my M1 MacBook Pro, as I was tired of having to use an adapter every time I needed to use my old flash-drives. As my first type-C flash drive, I couldn't be happier. The performance is what you would expect from a Gen 1, USB 3.2 (a little above par compared with USB 3, to be honest), but I wasn't getting this for any super-computing speed tests, so that was fine with me. All I can say is that whoever took the product photos for this little flash drive MUST'VE used a macro lens, because this thing is SUPER tiny! It barely sticks out an inch from the side of my MacBook when it's connected, and that's fine with me - I'm just glad I have a dedicated gadget-bag for my cables and flash drives or else I'd be constantly worried about losing this little thing! Fantastic product, though. Highly recommended!

Purchased the MacBook Air and Apple care as a Package deal.

I like my Belkin bag for my laptop Apple MacBook Air just fit.

The usb super drive is a must have. It is Apple quality all the way.
