♥♥♥♥♥

simply bad choice!

I purchased the 80Gb drive last year attracted by good reviews and having my old Lacie 20Gb reliably working for several yrs already.
But apparently times changed for LaCie. After 18 mos the 80Gb drive is completely dead, cannot be powered up at all. Since new AC adapter did not help and disk warranty is expired, the data will be lost.
The LaCie's technical support turned out totally useless, they keep recommending to re-format the drive ... how can one do it without switching it on? no idea ..
Simply bad choice!
