LaCie Mobile Drive external hard drive

LaCie is a renowned premium hardware brand specializing in storage solutions and computer peripherals. Originally founded in France, the brand became synonymous with high-end industrial design through collaborations with famous designers such as Neil Poulton, as seen in the 'design by neil poulton' inscription. The brand was established by LaCie S.A. in the late 1980s following a merger between a French company and an American entity.

In 2012, LaCie was acquired by the American storage giant Seagate Technology. Today, while the design and engineering heritage remains rooted in its European origins, the products are primarily manufactured in China to leverage global supply chain efficiencies. Seagate continues to operate LaCie as its premium brand, catering to photographers, videographers, and creative professionals who require both aesthetic appeal and high performance.
