A rugged portable drive for crews and travelers who also want one SSD for Mac, PC and a game console. The speed figures in the listing disagree, so treat the quoted read rate as a ceiling.

ASIN: B07XMYK63NCategory: External Solid State Drives
Overview
Connecting over USB-C, this handheld SSD stores files and footage on Seagate FireCuda NVMe flash. It is described for filmmakers and imaging technicians, with resistance to water and drops and password-protected hardware encryption.
One drive across a laptop, a desktop and a console is the selling point here, backed by a case rated against water and drops. The limits are in the data. The media speed field gives two different figures, the title is in Dutch, and the listing does not say how each console uses the drive.
Who it's for
Mixed setups are the strength: a laptop on location, a desktop at home and a console in the living room can all take the same drive, per the compatibility fields. Anyone who never leaves a desk gets little from the water and drop protection, and console owners should confirm how their system uses external storage.
Pros and cons
- Water and dust resistance rating
- Drop resistance stated
- Hardware encryption with password
- Mac, PC and console list
- Speed given as two different figures
- Title and some fields not in English
- Console usage details missing
- Write speed not listed
Performance notes
Read speed is governed by the NVMe flash inside and by the port it is plugged into, because the drive can only run as fast as the connection behind it. The listing gives one figure at the faster end and another at a lower rate, so the lower number is the safer planning value. Sustained writes are not quoted.

Frequently asked questions
Can the LaCie Rugged SSD 1TB be used with a PlayStation 5 or Xbox?
The listing names Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, Switch OLED, Switch Lite and PlayStation 5 as compatible console models. It does not explain how each console uses the drive, so check the console's external storage rules.

The built-in media field lists USB cables for Thunderbolt 3, USB-C and USB 3.0.
Is the Adobe CC offer included with this LaCie Rugged SSD?
The Dutch title mentions 1 month of Adobe CC All Apps. The English description says nothing about it, so confirm the offer with the seller.
