This model is the LaCie D2 Professional 14TB desktop hard drive, a single-bay external drive housed in LaCie's distinctive machined aluminium enclosure, designed to sit on a desk next to a workstation and provide fast, simple bulk storage for creative and professional use. The all-metal housing acts as a passive heatsink, drawing heat away from the drive during long sustained transfers (large video exports, backups, archive jobs) without needing a fan. It connects over a USB 3 Type-C Gen 2 (10Gbps) port rated at up to 240MB/s, with both a Type-C-to-Type-A and Type-C-to-Type-C cable included so it works with current USB-C machines and older USB-A ones alike. At 14TB it's aimed at users who need a large single volume for media libraries, project archives or Time Machine-style backup rather than a multi-drive RAID array. The black aluminium chassis measures 189x130x60mm, and LaCie backs the D2 Professional with an industry-leading 5-year limited warranty.
