Cannot recover without losing all data!!


We were using this as a backup server. Within one month it failed with a corrupt/missing hal.dll file.
Because it uses XP embedded it could not be restored/recovered so all our backups were lost! We also had to return it to Lacie for repair as their restore CD would not work either.

We now have no confidence in using this as a server or for backup.

Overview

LaCie Ethernet Disk

Editors rating
Rating: 7.3
Verdict

The Ethernet Disk offers affordable network storage in a sleek rack-mountable casing. Performance isn’t great, but given its target audience this probably isn’t a show-stopper. Expansion is an issue though.

Typical price

£ 329
