LaCie Showcses New Range of Rugged SSD Devices at the 2019 IBC Show
Today at the 2019 IBC Show, LaCie, a Seagate Technology brand, announced three new storage solutions for creative, media and entertainment (M&E) professionals.
The new products n display are the LaCie Rugged SSD Pro, LaCie Rugged SSD, and LaCie Rugged BOSS SSD.
The LaCie Rugged SSD Pro satisfies the cravings of filmmakers and digital imaging technicians (DITs) for a scratch disk with high-speed transfers and editing power for up to 8K high-res and super slow motion footage.
This drive features a Seagate FireCuda NVMe SSD inside for maximum Thunderbolt 3 speeds up to 2800MB/s and in-field durability so filmmakers and DITs can playback 6K, 8K, and super slow-motion source files anywhere — without transcoding. Previously, Thunderbolt 3 devices would only work with Thunderbolt 3 computers; now, the LaCie Rugged SSD Pro features the latest Thunderbolt 3 controller and is the first Thunderbolt 3 portable storage solution offering USB 3.1 compatibility for seamless plug and play connectivity.
This palm-sized drive can tackle any terrain with its IP67-rated dust and water resistance, three-meter drop tolerance, and two-ton car crush resistance. It is the first Thunderbolt 3 storage solution that can be immersed in water up to one meter for up to 30 minutes. Plus, the SSD inclueds a five-year limited warranty protection plan featuring Rescue Data Recovery Services.
The LaCie Rugged SSD Pro will be available with MSRPs of $399.99 (1TB) and $699.99 (2TB).
The LaCie Rugged SSD provides filmmakers and DITs with high-speed transfers and editing power, ruggedness and Seagate Secure self-encrypting technology with password protection. With Seagate FireCuda NVMe SSD inside, users will experience USB 3.1 Gen 2 speeds of up to 950MB/s.
This hand-held solution provides plenty of capacity, up to 2TB, and, like all members of the Rugged family, it is rated IP67 for water resistance, three-meter drop tolerance, and two-ton car crush resistance. It also comes with Seagate’s five-year limited warranty and Rescue Data Recovery Services plan as well as a one-month complimentary membership to Adobe Creative Cloud® All Apps Plan. The LaCie Rugged SSD will be available with MSRPs of $179.99 (500GB), $299.99 (1TB) and $499.99 (2TB).
The LaCie Rugged BOSS SSD satisfies filmmakers and photographers needing a fast, easy, computer-free way to copy, review, and manage content on the go.
It comes with a spacious 1TB of capacity enabling users to tap into SSD speeds of up to 430MB/s with direct file transfers via the integrated SD card slot and USB port. The built-in status screen provides real-time updates on transfers, capacity, and battery life to help you manage your workflow. With the LaCie BOSS app on iOS and Android you can view, name and delete footage using your mobile device.
Designed to tackle any terrain with drop, splash and dust resistance, the LaCie Rugged BOSS SSD can be used as a portable power pack for USB devices like phones and mirrorless cameras. With a 3-year limited warranty and Seagate’s Rescue Data Recovery Services included, the drive includes a complimentary 1-month subscription to Adobe Creative Cloud All-Apps plan featuring Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, and more. The LaCie Rugged BOSS SSD will be available with an MSRP of $449.99.
