According to our external hard drive HDD expert
The LaCie Rugged Thunderbolt 2TB is a 2.5-inch portable external hard drive developed especially for creative professionals who spend a lot of time on the go. Thanks to the sturdy rubber sleeve, the drive is drop proof up to a height of 2 meters. In addition, the drive is also shockproof, dust proof, and waterproof, which means you can use it in extreme weather. You can connect the drive with USB 3.0 or the Thunderbolt 2 port, which allows you to transfer RAW photo collections or video footage with a speed of 20Gbps. Additionally, all your files will be secured thanks to the AES 256-bit encryption. With the LaCie Backup Assistant, you can automatically make backups of all your media.

Dear Buyers,
I've owned the Lacie Rugged Thunderbolt 2 TB for a while now. I've been using this hard drive for a few weeks now and I really like it.
The material that this hard drive is made of is very robust. Splash-proof and well protected against dust. If you work in environments where sometimes a beating can be expected, this is ideal!
I use this hard drive for all kinds of things. Music, movies, documents you name it! I myself take a lot of photos with a DSLR, all these photos I edit from the hard disk. You don't even notice that your photos are on the hard drive, loading is so fast! Copying is also very fast thanks to the thunderbolt connection. I myself use a Macbook so thunderbolt is perfect. For other PCs, the alternative USB 3.0 connection is very handy and also super fast.
Would I recommend this? Yes! But only if you think your hard drive should be well protected and fast in transfer. For lower prices, you also have a hard drive with 2 TB storage. But never as robust and fast as this one.
Greetings Niels

Great disc that you can easily take with you. Thunderbolt cable can be rolled up around the drive and is nicely concealed, so it is very compact and of course robust.
Installation on Mac is of course really plug 'n play. Not tested on Windows yet. A USB3 port would have been nice for exchange with Windows PC/Laptop, but it's not an issue for me.

I use this disc for my video and photography. The drive is a workhorse and almost impossible to break. Your data is therefore safe under almost all circumstances. Unfortunately, it contains a slow drive, so you can't use the full speed of Thunderbolt.
