Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The lacie drive has an esata interface in addition to firewire. The usb-c to esata interface works as expected with the drive. It is possible to use it to transfer data from a datum to an imac.

    Then 4k video files came along and editing or transferring huge video files took way to long to do

    Expectation is that same 900 gb directory copying to a ssd would take less than 60 minutes
