LaCie SSD Pro is a Thunderbolt 3, but it is compatible with thunderbolt 4 / USB 4.0 devices. However there will be no speed difference. Technically Thunderbolt 4 was was made for docking and hubbing solutions, so if you are not planning to use them, thunderbolt 4 does note make any difference.
It's iconic! 😮 Fun fact: La Cie is actually a pun. The parent company is Seagate, and La Cie is French for "The Company". "Firecuda" is one of their trademarks too - presumably a mythical sea monster. 🌊 Of course "it's able to withstand at least 30 minutes of exposure underwater". 🐬🦐🦞🦑🦈🐋 Lol. I just bought the thunderbolt Pro one, by the way.
If you're drop a storage dive in water, you should stay away a pond. The same thing regarding Aa a Crushing Force of Two Tons. If you intend to leave it under a truck, stay away from the roadway
I agree. I’m not bothered enough not to get it, but it’s time Lacie came out with a variety of colours and denoted the regular from the Pro in a different way. The silicone outer could simply be stamped with PRO. Or have something shiny on the outside.
@@lucasnoritomi-hartwig3928 Hardware level encryption sometimes comes across as a door. Many times, in the case of select SSDs, all one would need to do is remove the hinges off the doors and get in as many hardware solutions simply tell the drive to unlock rather than a handshake. Bitlocker has a similar issue in which the TPM can be overruled and the door just popped open without the key. Software level, such as Bitlocker on a USB drive, tends to rely on a phrase or other method that can't be stored. Like my SD card I have Bitlocker on to enable it I have to use a phrase to unlock it.
@@mallyjockson SanDisk professional G40 beats the LaCie SSD rugged pro not just in speed but also in ruggedness and construction. I like LaCie don't get me wrong, they are overpriced. I own several of each brand but lately I've been steering towards the professional SSD line of SanDisk. The new blade system is great .
