Review: This review is for the LaCie Rugged SSD Pro 1TB Solid State Drive — USB-C Thunderbolt 3. I'm using it as an external SSD for a Mac Mini w/ Thunderbolt 3. It comes formatted in exFAT which works on both Mac and PCs but it will be dedicated to a Mac Mini so it's best formatted as APFS for best speed. It took about 1sec to do that. It copied a movie file of 70 GB from the internal SSD in less than 10 sec. To do an encrypted Time Machine backup of the entire 256 GB SSD internal storage it took less than 15 mins. It's blazing fast and I'm impressed. Small enough to fit in a shirt pocket and super light. Unless I have a problem and need to come back to update this review it stands as it is. Review: I bought the LaCie SSD Pro to keep my 2017 iMac going its seven years old. The LaCie SSD comes with a thunderbolt 3 cable. It's really short, so I bought a longer one for $20 on desertcart with my order perfect. I formatted and rebooted the computer and installed Mac OS. It feels like I got a new computer, snappy and fast. Does get a bit warm but that's to be expected for an external SSD. Happy with it and recommend! ## Features - Harness top Thunderbolt 3 speeds with the 1TB Seagate FireCuda NV Me SSD for playback/recording of up to 2800MB/s on 6K, 8K, and super so-so video - Tackle any terrain with extreme IP67-rated water resistance, three-meter drop tolerance, two-ton car crush resistance, and dust resistance in a palm-sized external SSD Drive - Includes a Thunderbolt 3 cable for easy connectivity with USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 on IPAD, Mac and Windows computers - Take advantage of a one-month complimentary membership to Adobe creative cloud all apps plan for access to awesome photo and video editing apps - Enjoy long-term peace of mind with the included five-year limited product protection plan featuring Rescue Data Recovery services ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07X1ZMFKG | | Additional Features | Portable | | Best Sellers Rank | #6,516 in Computers ( See Top 100 in Computers ) #35 in External Solid State Drives | | Brand | LaCie | | Built-In Media | Adobe Creative Cloud All Apps Plan, LaCie Rugged SSD Pro, Quick Start Guide, Thunderbolt 3 (40Gb/s) Cable | | Cache Memory Installed Size | 1 | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Desktop, Laptop | | Compatible Video Game Console Models | Sony PlayStation 5 | | Connectivity Technology | Thunderbolt | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (128) | | Data Transfer Rate | 2800 Megabits Per Second | | Digital Storage Capacity | 1 TB | | Enclosure Material | NAND flash memory | | Form Factor | Portable | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00763649137697 | | Hard Disk Description | Solid State Drive | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 2.5 Inches | | Hard Disk Interface | Thunderbolt | | Hard Disk Rotational Speed | 7200 RPM | | Hard-Drive Size | 1 TB | | Hardware Connectivity | Thunderbolt, USB, USB Type C | | Hardware Platform | Mac, PC | | Installation Type | External Hard Drive | | Item Dimensions L x W x Thickness | 9.8L x 6.5W x 1.7Th centimeters | | Item Weight | 100 Grams | | Manufacturer | Lacie | | Media Speed | 2.800 megabytes_per_second | | Mfr Part Number | STHZ1000800 | | Model Name | STHZ1000800 | | Model Number | STHZ1000800 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Read Speed | 2800 Megabytes Per Second | | Specific Uses For Product | General Personal Computing | | UPC | 763649137697 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 5 Year Manufacturer | ## Product Details - **Brand:** LaCie - **Colour:** Black - **Compatible devices:** Desktop, Laptop - **Connectivity technology:** Thunderbolt - **Digital storage capacity:** 1 TB - **Hard disk description:** Solid State Drive - **Hard disk form factor:** 2.5 Inches - **Hard disk interface:** Thunderbolt - **Installation type:** External Hard Drive - **Special features:** Portable ## Images ![LaCie Rugged SSD Pro 1TB Solid State Drive — USB-C Thunderbolt 3, Drop Shock Dust Water Resistant, for Mac and PC Computer Desktop Laptop, 1 Mo Adobe CC (STHZ1000800) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/712xZ84ec7L.jpg) ![LaCie Rugged SSD Pro 1TB Solid State Drive — USB-C Thunderbolt 3, Drop Shock Dust Water Resistant, for Mac and PC Computer Desktop Laptop, 1 Mo Adobe CC (STHZ1000800) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81KmURx2cWL.jpg) ![LaCie Rugged SSD Pro 1TB Solid State Drive — USB-C Thunderbolt 3, Drop Shock Dust Water Resistant, for Mac and PC Computer Desktop Laptop, 1 Mo Adobe CC (STHZ1000800) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81cSibYSy1L.jpg) ![LaCie Rugged SSD Pro 1TB Solid State Drive — USB-C Thunderbolt 3, Drop Shock Dust Water Resistant, for Mac and PC Computer Desktop Laptop, 1 Mo Adobe CC (STHZ1000800) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/717iRHyIdPL.jpg) ![LaCie Rugged SSD Pro 1TB Solid State Drive — USB-C Thunderbolt 3, Drop Shock Dust Water Resistant, for Mac and PC Computer Desktop Laptop, 1 Mo Adobe CC (STHZ1000800) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ZUQwt40nL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What's the difference between this mini and the thunderbolt?** A: If I understand the question, the only difference between the two drives is that the one you are referencing has a USB 3.0 port, and the other has a Thunderbolt port. The drives themselves are identical. If you have a computer with a USB port, of any generation, the drive with the USB 3.0 port will work well with it. The drive is fastest when it's plugged into a USB 3.0 port, but is backwards compatible with a USB 2.0 port. The drive with the Thunderbolt port will work only with a computer that also has a Thunderbolt port. Thunderbolt is faster than USB, but is not yet in really wide use. Step one: Determine which ports your computer has. The LaCie drive itself is a gem, regardless of which port it uses. (P.S. Some drives have BOTH USB and Thunderbolt connectivity.) **Q: Is this a solid-state (flash storage) drive?** A: I searched Amazon for a LaCie solid state (SSD) external portable drive and was brought to this page. Most of the reviews don't mention SSD and it appears that all the reviews for the several different models of this LaCie external drive are combined together. So, 4 people said no, this is not about drives with SSD, and then one person said yes. Far more people are not going to have an SSD model because it's WAY more expensive. Most people will prefer to get one that is in the $150-$250 price range at most. The ones with SSD cost a lot more than that. And worth it too if you have the money because they are so fast, no comparison. If i scroll up from this Question section, this is what is at the top of the auction page but again these same questions and reviews will show up no matter which model you search for, with a different name at the top: LaCie Rugged Thunderbolt and USB 3.0 SSD 1TB Portable Hard Drive LAC9000602 **Q: can i have a new macbook pro. can i get either the thunderbolt usb-c or the usb-c?** A: A USB-C hard drive is compatible with Thunderbolt 3 ports on a Mac, so this will work. Also works of course with USB-C ports, and older USB 3.0 ports using supplied cable. **Q: How does usbc differ from the thunderbolt usb-c option? i see thunderbolt usbc is more expensive** A: USB-C and Thunderbolt 3 share the same physical connection type (USB-C). USB-C devices can be connected to Thunderbolt 3 ports, as TB3 supports USB-C devices. However, TB3 drives cannot be connected to USB-C ports on computer. So, this USB-C drive will connect to USB-C ports, Thunderbolt 3 ports, or using included cable, USB 3.0/2.0 ports. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by E***A on 15 June 2024* This review is for the LaCie Rugged SSD Pro 1TB Solid State Drive — USB-C Thunderbolt 3.

Happy with it and recommend! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by G***Y on 29 November 2020* Was in the market for an external HDD Hard drive and stumbled upon this pup and decided to spend the extra money and go with and SSD. Glad I did. I am using this to store extended sound libraries from some Logic Pro X and other third party sound libraries. Pros 1) Extremely small and light weight. Fits in the palm of my hand 2) Has the same LaCie Durability that their HDD Hard Drives have 3) Incredibly fast. It took about 20 minutes to download 80% of extended Logic Pro X sound library onto this little thing. 4) The connection when using the external sound libraries with the program is seamless. No delays in connection. Cons 1) The mini thunder bolt 3 (USBC) cord they give you is small and very sensitive so if you're moving the computer around at all, the connection will get cut. Something to keep in mind if you're outdoors and using this for photography. 2) Can heat up rather quickly if its being used for an extended period of time. I am currently using it in the winter time in a cooler room, so i'm not overly concerned about it now. ## Frequently Bought Together - LaCie Rugged SSD Pro 1TB Solid State Drive — USB-C Thunderbolt 3, Drop Shock Dust Water Resistant, for Mac and PC Computer Desktop Laptop, 1 Mo Adobe CC (STHZ1000800) - Case Compatible with LaCie Rugged Mini 1TB/ 2TB/ 4TB/ 5TB External Hard Drive Portable HDD, Storage Holder for Hard Drives for Mac and PC Computer & USB 3.0 2.0 Cable SD Cards (Orange) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/263591684-lacie-rugged-ssd-pro-1tb-solid-state-drive-usb-c](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/263591684-lacie-rugged-ssd-pro-1tb-solid-state-drive-usb-c) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
