media servers, NAS, personal cloud or whatever you call them – they are essentially external hard drives designed to contain our burgeoning digital contents. regardless of their marketed purpose, we thus begin to amass whole bunch them for different purposes such as file sharing, digital content streaming and even one for…
when a product – any product – is touched by a world class designer, you know you are going to see something really awesome and the LaCie x Starck Blade Runner Hard Drive is one such example and it is, of course, touched by the undisputed, world renown designer Philippe Starck. understandably – who else would have such an incredibly, insane…
while smartphones are getting a lot slimmer than we can remember, portable hard drives aren’t. instead of going on the infinite anorexic route, portable hard drives have something else to offer: speed and we do mean crazy speed. and thanks to pioneering design-focused company such as Apple, many peripherals makers are feeling the pressure to keep…
modern technology and aesthetic don’t always see eye-to-eye. sure, you could find some gadgets that looks ‘pretty’ but they are just, well, pretty and would hardly make anyone of us exclaim “it is a beau!” however, when you have two makers from two different industries come together with a common ‘spare no details’ philosophy, then you know you have a true form and…
you only need one good portable hard drive but you have a few rigs with a couple of different interfaces including Thunderbolt and SuperSpeed USB 3.0, so what do you do? before September, i’d advise you to get two portable HD but lucky for you (and everyone else), there’s one drive that will take on both: the LaCie Rugged USB3 Thunderbolt Series. as the name implies, this…

blame it on today’s high definition digital contents for making us crying out for more storage capacity. cloud storage provides a convenient, favorable proposition but limited in capacity, unless you are willing to dig deep into your pockets for more space. that said, it is sounds logical to fall back on the good’ol portable hard drive that you can actually…
we love portable storage drives but we are also aware of the risk involved when using them, especially when it meets with some unexpected drops that may…
no matter how big is the internal hard drive of your computer, you will still need some form of external backup or storage. we are no fans of cloud storage cos’ we prefer to keep our data close to us, even if it means lugging along another couple of portable hard drives. it make…
digital contents. they are growing in size rapidly, ain’t it? and this growth in size means that we will need bigger capacity storage and faster transfer rate to handle them – both which are qualities that the new Western Digital…
we’d opt for solid state drive (SSD), for its reliability but getting unusually large data into it could be a particularly long process for the impatient ones like us. what if we could marry a SSD with today’s fastest transfer medium, the…
