Slowly but surely, solid-state-drives are making their entrance into mainstream acceptance. For sometime, higher-end laptops from Apple, Sony, HP, etc. have offered optional SSD hard disks as replacements for mechanical drives, which, due to moving parts, are significantly slower than solid-state storage for random and sequential reading (as well as random writing) speed.

External hard drives are getting smaller and more advanced everyday, but in order to do this, many companies shed the style. Well, some hope has come for those who are in the market for an external hard drive. The new LaCie by Philippe Starck packs quite a punch, with its chrome mobile and desktop drives that LaCie is calling “sculptured magma”.

The LaCie looks downright amazing. The chrome finish shows off the LED Philippe Starck logo and houses tech that is reliable, fast, and rather cheap. A 1TB desktop model of this shiny goodness will cost you $130, while a 2TB model will cost you $250. This is a lot cheaper than other hard drives and offers even more storage. More »
