About this product
The LaCie Mobile Drive 4TB External Hard Drive, model STHG5000400, actually offers a 5TB storage capacity despite its title. This portable HDD is housed in a 2.5-inch form factor and connects via a USB-C interface. It features a 'Rugged' design, ensuring durability for on-the-go use. The drive comes in a Moon Silver finish and originates from Thailand.
Our take
The LaCie Mobile Drive offers a very generous 5TB of portable storage, which is a significant amount for any user, especially considering its compact 2.5-inch form factor. The USB-C interface is excellent for modern connectivity, ensuring good transfer speeds for an HDD. I particularly appreciate the 'Rugged' features, adding a layer of protection that's often overlooked in sleek mobile drives. However, the discrepancy between the 4TB in the title and the 5TB in the specs is quite confusing and should be clarified. As an HDD, its speed won't match an SSD, but for bulk storage and durability, it's a solid option.
