Hi Sue - We have over 8 of the LaCie external firewire hard drives (not the portable ones-but they're still very portable), all 7200 rpm, and have had no problems at all. In the last few months, we purchased 2 firewire enclosures and bought 4-120gig maxtor drives for each. The enclosures were 50-60 dollars each and can hold 2 drives, and the drives all had rebates on so I think for about $325 we have 240gig. for each enclosure. The enclosures are a bit larger than the LaCie's but offer a lot more storage space.

Has anyone had experience (positive or negative) with LaCie's portable external HD's (firewire/USB)? I'm looking to keep the cost down but want something reliable. Looking forward to your suggestions. thanks, Sue >> -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
