    Can anyone relate their experiences with Cirrus hard disks by LaCie?
    I would like to know about reliability, noise level, etc.  Thanks.

I've had a 60 M LaCie external for about seven months.  It is truly an
awesome piece of hardware, and is fairly quiet.  I would reccommend it
heartily.

At the time I bought mine it was the cheapest 60M on the market, I
think.  Now there are others cheaper, but not by much.  

The original unit I was shipped did not work correctly.  LaCie replaced
it quickly.  The drive comes with a 1-year warranty, although I don't
expect to have to use it; it has been very reliable.

The driver software is incredibly good.
