Now, the 2TB storage? A game-changer for anyone drowning in files. All my photos, videos, and work projects find a cozy home here without slowing down my digital life. And when it comes to transferring stuff, the USB 3.0 is like the speed of light – saving me time and sanity.
Setting it up is a breeze – no tech wizardry required. It plays nice with my Mac.
But what I love most? It's small enough to fit in my pocket. Seriously, having my digital life in my pocket is a game-changer, especially when I'm on the move.
Talked to a computer techie kind of guy that worked for Best Buy and after a lot of back and forth thing he said do you have a USB to Android cell phone charger cord? He said try plugging the Android end into the larger part of the connection on the hard drive and plug that in the back of your iMac which I did. Magically, with this phone charger cord that I got at QT for two bucks, the hard drive was recognized by the iMac and I was able to transfer files and everything, weird huh?
Anyway, the guy checked the store and they actually make a cable that plugs into the bottom of the hard drive, you can see the strange USB kind of connection in the picture I attached, so I went to Best Buy and got THAT cable (about 10 bucks) 'cuz it's purpose made for both the larger (android phone connection), and that smaller side...Best Buy guy n I never figured out what the small side of connection does..Oh well, hard drive works and it's awesome.

First and foremost, let's talk about durability. The LaCie Rugged Mini is built like a tank, with a shock-resistant exterior that can withstand drops, shocks, and even pressure of up to one ton. This rugged design ensures that your data remains safe and secure, even in the most challenging environments. Whether you're traveling, working in the field, or simply prone to accidents, you can trust that your files are protected.
Despite its robust construction, the LaCie Rugged Mini is surprisingly compact and lightweight, making it easy to carry with you wherever you go. Its small form factor fits comfortably in your pocket or bag, allowing you to take your files with you wherever you go without adding unnecessary bulk.
