LaCie Adds 180GB 7200 rpm Desktop Hard Drive to Ultra160/LVD Line

LaCie became one of the first OEMs to launch a 180GB external desktop drive today. Featuring a rotational speed of 7,200 rpm, LaCie's new 3.5-inch hard drive achieves record-breaking transfer rates of up to 75 MB/sec in RAID and 47 MB/sec as a single drive, making it one of the largest and fastest hard drives on the market. The drive is equipped with an Ultra 160/LVD SCSI interface--the fastest SCSI interface available--and LaCie's unique bullet-proof casing for added heat and shock resistance.
