    We have used Promise Pegasus drives exclusively, without problems – but I see LaCie 8TB 2big Thunderbolt Series RAID Hard Drive are much less expensive per TB. Anyone using the LaCies? Any feedback?

    i got a couple of the 4TB 2 big thunderbolts with no complaints. Just as quick as advertised, pretty quiet, not alot of heat. Been going on em about 6months now.

    I have the 6TB model. Very cool to touch. Fast. Mostly quiet. My model makes a strange tweeting noise every so often which LaCie said is due to the specific drives they use. I got used to it, but worth noting.

    Several LaCie drives over the last 12 months have worked without a hitch.

    Been using several Promise and Lacie TB Raids and drives since last year, no issues so far.
