Reviews of the LaCie Starck Mobile (500GB)
-
CNET Review
The Good: Sexy design; embedded USB cable.
The Bad: No FireWire port; heavy aluminum casing; competition offers a cheaper cost per gigabyte; short USB cable; bulky USB plug doesn't play well with other peripherals.
The Bottom Line: LaCie clearly spent a lot of time designing the look and feel of the Starck Mobile Hard Drive, but it trips up on the basic essentials like weight, ease of use, cost per gigabyte, and transfer speed. Hard-core design geeks will get a kick out of its funky case, but everyone else should check out the Fujitsu HandyDrive, which offers more storage space for less.
