LaCie has really been busy of late cranking out new storage devices. Its latest product, announced today, is a home version of its Ethernet Disk mini NAS drive. The LaCie Ethernet Disk mini – Home Edition is priced at around $200 and will be available in October.

The LaCie Ethernet Disk mini – Home Edition is a 500GB personal media server which offers Gigabit Ethernet and USB 2.0 connectivity. It allows users the ability to offer remote access to others for files stored on it and can also be used to back up and synchronize a home computer automatically. It also lets one stream multimedia files through DLNA-compatible UPnP media players and acts as an iTunes music server.

You want one backup device which supports multiple interfaces for backing up data and can store a lot of information. LaCie thinks it may have the answer with its new LaCie 2big Triple, available in October at a starting price of around $400.

The LaCie 2big Triple is available in 1, 1.5 and 2TB versions via a two-disk RAID design. 2big Triple supports FireWire 800, FireWire 400 and USB 2.0. It’s pre-formatted for Mac users, though it can be converted easily to Windows. Backups can be done via a one-touch process and the drive sports a natural cooling heat sink metal design.

Aesthetics are not something people usually talk about when it comes to Hard Drives and portable storage devices, but would you rather have a clunky box sitting on your desk or a slick looking portable storage device like the LaCie devices pictured here? Designed by renowned designer Sam Hecht, this new line of machines do what they’re told and look good doing it.

The LaCie Little Disk line will provide a capacity of 30 to 250GB in 1.8 inch and 2.5 inch drives both of which support the USB 2.0 interface. Additionally the 2.5 inch version will be available with Firewire connectivity and a one-click synchronization and back up function. The drives are available now with prices starting at $90 USD.
