LaCie har för vana att lansera stilrena och designade lagringslösningar för PC-marknaden men med deras senaste externa hårddisk har man valt att fokusera på lite andra saker. Framför estetisk design har man satt säkerhet och deras 1TB Rugged XL hårddisk ska med sitt gummiklädda aluminiumchassi kunna ta en hel del stryk innan man riskerar att förlora sin data. LaCies Rugged XL enhet kopplas in i en datorn (PC eller Mac) med antingen USB2.0 eller eSATA-gränssnittet. Den externa hårddisken kommer även med mjukvara för att enkelt säkerhetskopiera filer på användarens dator.
