Manufacturer’s Description
The LaCie Starck Mobile Hard Drive is the result of a collaboration between LaCie and world-famous designer Philippe Starck. Its sturdy 2mm of aluminum casing keeps the LaCie Starck from overheating, and helps it to be very resistant, enhancing its overall dependability. The polished aluminum exterior is stylish and tough, but also light enough to transport, making the LaCie Starck both completely chic and completely mobile. A convenient aspect of the LaCie Starck is its embedded USB cable, which allows you to maximize its compact nature and portability. It's easy to extract your cable, as well as coil it back inside of the drive. In addition, it guarantees that you'll never lose your USB cable, a feature that underscores Philippe Starck's commitment to practical and usable design.
