help LaCie Rugged Secure FAQ
How is data on the LaCie Rugged Secure encrypted?
The drive supports hardware-based AES-256 encryption through Seagate Secure technology. Users manage the security features with LaCie Toolkit and must retain the password because encrypted data may be inaccessible without it.
Can the LaCie Rugged Secure survive being dropped?
It is designed to resist drops, crushing, and rain during normal field use, aided by the familiar orange rubber sleeve. Those protections reduce accident risk but do not make the hard drive indestructible or suitable for underwater operation.
Is the Rugged Secure an SSD?
No. The Rugged Secure product is a portable mechanical hard drive, so it offers lower cost per terabyte but slower transfers and more moving parts than the LaCie Rugged SSD range.
Will the LaCie Rugged Secure work with both Windows and Mac?
Yes, but the drive's format determines whether both systems can write to it without additional software. Reformatting it as exFAT is a common cross-platform choice, although reformatting erases the files already stored on the drive.
