Weighing less than 5 ounces (137g), the new LaCie jewel is barely larger than a credit card and thinner than a mobile phone (4.4 x 0.629 x 2.5 in. / 111 x 16 x 63 mm). A masterpiece of understated elegance, the LaCie Data Bank comes with a sleek, ingot-shaped magnesium design. Hot-pluggable to easily share among cross-platform desktops, this lightweight, portable hard drive features LaCie's U&I universal connectivity (one FireWire port and one USB 2.0 port), and compatibility with Macintosh and PC systems. The LaCie Data Bank offers true plug and play connectivity, without the need for driver or software installation for Windows XP and Mac OS X users. The LaCie Data Bank can be powered by the interface bus - no power supply is needed. Simply connect the drive to your computer and use the power supplied by the FireWire or USB cable. The LaCie Data Bank features the new USB 2.0 standard, which boasts transfer rates of up to 480Mbps while still maintaining backward compatibility with USB 1.1 devices. This powerful hard drive is also equipped with the blazing FireWire interface, delivering transfer rates of up to 400Mbps. These impressive speeds support backup and archival of digital audio, video, photos and data, as well as data sharing and information exchange.
