The Lacie Golden Disk external hard drive, designed by Ora-Ïto, is tempting me, even though I know fully well that I can get double the capacity for another $50. Realistically, though, it will be many years before I max out half a terabyte, and I can't resist that surface value—some might call it "shiny"—especially when it comes in a shape that casually resembles Gió Pomodoro's classy abstract bronze pieces.
Maybe you like one of Lacie's other designs better?
Gió Pomodoro, Forma distesa, 1963–4.
The question is, can you swap out the drives? You could get the drive+enclosure, sell the drive, and buy a larger drive. In fact you could get the 500gig drive+enclosure, and buy a 1TB drive yourself, and still spend less than LaCie's charging for their 1TB drive+enclosure.
Posted by: ben wolfson at May 6, 2008 2:41 PMHello just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your article seem to be running off the screen in Opera. I'm not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I figured I'd post to let you know. The layout look great though! Hope you get the problem fixed soon. Kudos

It kind of feels too complicated and very extensive for me. I am taking a look ahead in your next put up, Iˇ¦ll attempt to get the hold of it!
