Rating:  - LaCie's well-designed brick will hose your data!
I bought this drive without doing my usual research and luck was NOT with me. It wouldn't boot at all into Mac OS X 10.4, despite performing well-enough with 10.3.9. Efforts to discover a solution prompted me to Google this device... and basically the firewire controllers LaCie uses on these drives are so poorly designed, they just can't handle the newer OS.
Further, they can and do fail catastrophically causing data loss.

Rating: - Stay away from this brand!!!
I decided to buy three of these drives after seeing the great sales price. It is just a few months down the line and only one of the drives works. The others? Blank! I've tried everything I know to recover my files and still nothing. What I thought was a great price was simply money thrown away. I use many many external drives with few problems. Two drives down out of three? Not great odds in my book.
Rating: - not worth the stress

Then a few days ago I plugged in and....nothing...I went to my digital tec friend at his work and he tried it on all the computers there and still nothing! I had my entire life on the drive ...

Rating: - Avoid Lacie drives...
I had better luck than many of these reviewers. My 160GB Lacie P3 drive lasted a whole 60 days before it died. Fortunately, I was able to remove the hard drive from the dead enclosure and retrieve my data.
Rating:  - Problems with "unformatted" disks
Update: So it is now some years later, and I have been using LaCie drives still, first the 20GB Rugged Drive when it was a plain blue rubber band around the housing, and recently, the 120GB Rugged Drive with the Orange rubber band on the metal housing, and I have to say, these two drives have been relaible and first rate--through a LOT of use, so the issues with the FireWire Bridges may have been seen-to, or I may have had a one-off, though to judge from the email traffic, it was 6 times the sigma... ...
