Good Evening,


      I have a 500 GB Lacie external hard-drive on my firewire 800
that is heading south. I had this less than a year and I am
disappointed that it is failing, but what can you do. I want to see
what others are using so I can get a idea what I need to look for when
I get this replace which will be soon.


     I mainly use this device to download audio and video pod-casts
and to save multimedia files/documents that I find on the net. I would
use my internal drive, but that will fill up very quickly, since allot
of pod-casts are in the 50 megabyte range. What luck does others have
on these drives and what is the manufacture. Thank you so much for
your input!


James Corbett
