The Safest Desktop Hard Drive from LaCie

LaCie is one of the most famous manufacturers of external/portable storage solutions, mostly due to the relative....special nature of their design, whether we're talking about looks or storage capacity. And the company strikes back with the SAFE Desktop Hard Drive 500GB, a desktop solution with a huge storage space and a very high level of security, especially considering the fact that it has been fitted with no less than...3 different security systems.

Thus, besides the biometric fingerprint reader (that's becoming a standard in the SAFE series), this particular solution also features a special internal firmware drive lock, which prevents intruders from accessing the data on the drive and a secure chain lock port, for attaching a chain lock to the desk to prevent theft. Here are some of the most important specifications of the SAFE Desktop Hard Drive 500GB:
