Theft: password protection with AES 256-bit software encryption Shock: drops of up to 2 meters (6.6 feet) (in non-operating mode) LaCie Private-Public (Software Encryption)ĭust & Water: IP 54 rated (when cover is attached) RAID 0 / RAID 1 / JBOD - Hardware Selection Buttonġ00-240V AC Switching Adapter (12V 5A DC) The detailed specification of the two review units are provided in the tables below.Ģx 6 TB 3.5" ST6000DX000 Hard Drives (Hot-Swappable) Our review unit was the 500 GB SSD version, which can also withstand vibrations and shocks. This ingress protection rating implies that the unit is dust proof and can also withstand water splashes. The 2big Thunderbolt 2 is meant for use on the desktop and needs an external power adapter, while the Rugged Thunderbolt comes with a protective covering that enables a IP-54 rating for ruggedness. Both units offer Thunderbolt as well as USB 3.0 connectivity. LaCie's Rugged Thunderbolt bus-powered DAS forms a complementary offering for in-field use. Today, we are reviewing one of LaCie's introductions, the 2big Thunderbolt 2. After installing macOS Big Sur on my 2019 iMac (27') my external hard drive (LaCie d2 Thunderbolt 3) does not go into power-saving mode when I put the iMac to sleep. Back in April, we had covered the launch of some solutions in this space. LaCie and G-Technology are two vendors targeting this space. Be it collecting data in the field or editing media at a workstation, the necessity for fast and accessible direct attached storage (DAS) units can't be stressed enough.

Consumers dealing with multimedia workflows need to transfer large amounts of data around.
