Works As Advertised (but uses 2 USB ports) . This wasn't obvious from the product description, but this unit uses 2 usb ports (for supplemental power). That said, it works flawlessly and handles fingerprint recognition much better than I expected. I recently had my laptop and external portable hard drive stolen (with a sychronized copy of my work data - ouch), using this drive will keep me sleeping soundly at night if my hard drive is stolen again....
LaCie 80GB Porsche SAFE Portable Hard Drive (300813) Reviews
LaCie safe in testing website Tom's hardware . When shopping for external hard drives one is bound to hear the name Lacie. The Oregon-based vendor has always produced quality external drives for various applications. The drive we received has carried on the Lacie legacy.

We start off by looking at the outside: Most external drives are not exactly pretty, and consumers often hide them under desks or in cabinets. I would be happy to add this drive to the top of my desk along with other eye candies. The design is sleek and elegant and could easily go on top of any CEO's desk. The drive itself has no buttons on the front, but a biometric reader on the top. The rest of the drive has a brushed metal look that is quite nice - considering it is a plastic case.

Now for the features on the inside: there's no shortage. The fingerprint software allows for up to five users, including an administrator. This feature is excellent in a business environment where multiple people might be working on a sensitive and secret project.

The fingerprint recognition requires two different fingerprints to ensure in the event you somehow lose a finger you can still access the drive. I found the software very accurate and did not need to swipe my finger more than once. The installation software along with the install instructions are very easy and user friendly.

Overall this drive is one of the nicest external drives to come into the office in a long time. The good style that meets excellent function makes this a top drive. One of the high points about this drive that will catch most consumers eyes is the price tag. A 120 GB is available for $ 129.99 and the whopping 500 GB for only $299.99.
