LaCie Bigggest Disk F800
Creative COW leader Walter Biscardi reviews the LaCie Biggest F800 and concludes that ''.... LaCie has targeted the F800 squarely at the DV marketplace by bringing these users a large capacity unit with a very small footprint. If your workflow is primarily DV, HDV or DVCPro HD and you're looking for a lot of storage with considerable real-time functionality, this is definitely a unit to consider.''
