Although I haven't used drives of that capacity,<b style="color:#FFA34F"></b><b style="color:#FFA34F"></b>
I have used many Lacie brand external drives in<b style="color:#FFA34F"></b>
both the Mac and PC format.<b style="color:#FFA34F"></b> They are kind of<b style="color:#FFA34F"></b>
expensive compared to some of the competitors<b style="color:#FFA34F"></b>
but they seem to be of very high quality.<b style="color:#FFA34F"></b> There are<b style="color:#FFA34F"></b>
a few that are at least 5 years old thats still running<b style="color:#FFA34F"></b>
without any problems.<b style="color:#FFA34F"></b>
