It was part of my "this is what computers used to look like" display when I had lots of room at home. Let me see if I can find it after the move (downsized).. Sooo many boxes, lol The Mac SE it was attached to failed the smoke test a couple years ago. Picture a 5-1/4 inch external CD drive with a 25 pin SCSI connector.
I bought it in 1987 from the LaCie office in Tigard, OR.
As someone who has purchased Lacie drives on and off over the years, and literally all of them failing, I am weary of the brand regardless of them now being owned by Seagate.

I bought my first LaCie drive in 1987. It was a 100mb SCSI drive and cost $1100. The thing still works but is pretty much useless due to its size.ballsystemlord - Wednesday, January 3, 2024 - link
