<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p class="intro">LaCie has launched a 1TB version of its rugged Thunderbolt external SSD for $949.99, allowing Mac users to keep their files safe even under adverse conditions.</p> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/lacies-new-1tb-rugged-thunderbolt-ssd-can-take-lot-abuse-18999' title="LaCie's new 1TB rugged Thunderbolt SSD can take a lot of abuse for $949.99 "><img src='(http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2015/04/lacie-rugged-thunderbolt-drive.jpg)?itok=bnLMTOfo' />[/url]</p> <p>The new version has double the storage space of the next largest Thunderbolt (http://www.imore.com/thunderbolt) SSD drive from LaCie.<!--break-->. The company says that it has a transfer speed of 387 MB a second. It adds:</p>

<p>The LaCie Rugged is MIL–compliant, which means that data is protected even during accidental drops of up to 2 meters (6.6 feet). With its cap in place, the LaCie Rugged is also IP 54–rated for superior protection against dust and water splashing — even during operation. Plus, it is resistant to vibration and shock and is tough enough to be shipped for reliable delivery to clients or partners.</p>

<p>LaCie is directly marketing the use of the 1TB Rugged SSD by professional photographers and videographers who might have to do a lot of work in the field. It says:</p>

<p>With a laptop and a LaCie Rugged, a photographer or videographer has everything they need to back up footage or complete a project on location. This time savings and convenience is key for field–based professionals.</p>

<p>In addition to its integrated Thunderbolt cable, the new drive also has a USB 3.0 port for better compatibility with PCs and Macs. The company recently announced plans to launch the Porsche Design Mobile Drive (http://www.imore.com/lacie-includes-usb-c-port-its-porsche-design-mobile-drive-new-macbook-owners), with a USB-C port, for owners of the upcoming new MacBook (http://www.imore.com/macbook) sometime later this quarter.</p> <p>Source: LaCie (https://www.lacie.com/us/company/news/news.htm?id=10807)</p> </div></div></div><img width='1' height='1' src='(http://tipb.com.feedsportal.com/c/33998/f/616881/s/452f62fd/sc/23/mf.gif)' border='0'/><br clear='all'/>
