- editor mentions on STORAGEsearch.com
- editor's comments:-July 2010 - LaCie is a consumer storage
company. Until now it hasn't launched an SSD product range - but it has sold USB
flash drives for some time. I expect it will join the
SSD market bubble
later this year. If you're not sure about the critical difference between a
flash drive and a flash SSD - it's
wear leveling.

LaCie - Recent Milestones from
Storage History
In
January 2010 - LaCie
launched
its "Enterprise"
range of desktop RAID
systems with eSATA
or USB or
FireWire connectivity.
This
is an "Enterprise" storage system in name only - because it doesn't
include redundant data paths or power supplies. It's best to think of it as a
stylish, high capacity, consumer DAS. For the real thing -

In July 2010 -
LaCie
launched a
rugged USB
flash drive - the
XtremKey - with upto 64GB capacity inside a 2mm metal pipe casing.
Sealed
with wear-resistant screw threads and a rubber O-ring, it is watertight up to
100meters. The LaCie XtremKey is also resistant to 5-meter drops, fierce heat
and bitter cold – it holds up in any environment, no matter where you take
it (+200°C / -50°). R/W speeds are upto 40MB/s and 30MB/s
respectively. ...watch
