In my experience LaCie are nothing but trouble. They make great monitors but drives and support suck. We had an ethernet drive that would work properly under OSX yet the box said it would. We also have a LaCie tape drive that misbehaves all the time - its a nightmare.
Personally I would drop kick it out of the window and buy a generic firewire case and slap a drive into it. I paid £15 for my external case and it has worked flawlessly even through Panther to Tiger to Panther back to Tiger, it works and everything stays on it. Not much help I know but just a word of warning.
