LaCie Rikiki Go
$90.00
Released August, 2010
The Pros:Stylish brushed metal exterior, with a clever cable securing system. Compact design, one of the smallest external drives on the market in terms of absolute dimensions. The metal casing can take a few bumps and knocks, just not during operation as there are no vibration damping features within the case.
The Cons:It is priced higher than many faster USB2.0 external drives from WD and Seagate. Performance is below average compared to WD and Seagate options.
The LaCie Rikiki Go is one of two ultra-compact, portable hard drives (Rikiki, Rikiki Go) from LaCie. In particular, the Rikiki Go builds from its predecessor by incorporating larger storage capacities up to 1TB, and by including an integrated USB cable.
