    I read lots of comments about LaCie hard disks.  Most people said that
    their software is reasonably flexible.  However, these people also
    said that their disks gave out high pitch noises after running for a
    while.
    
    Is there anyone out there that owned a LaCie hard disk for more than a
    year and don't have any of the above problems ?  Did anyone
    successfully fixed the high pitch problem once and for all ?
    
I have had the LaCie 60M external disk for about a year and a half
now.  I love it.  I love the software.  I would buy another disk from
LaCie without reservation.

It DID develop the high-pitched whining problem related to the static
brush, but I did not have any problems fixing that in the way that the
LaCie techs described to me.  Took about 15 minutes and a screwdriver
- AND I got to look inside the drive.  The electronics looked very
high-quality.  Everything was SMD.
