Seagate's premium brand LaCie has announced two new products ahead of CES in Las Vegas this week, both specifically focused and tailored to address needs in the creative professional community: the LaCie Mobile Drive and the LaCie Mobile SSD. Featuring up to 5TB of storage capacity, the Mobile Drive is an extremely compact external hard drive housed in a sleek and modern design. The Mobile SSD mirrors many features found in the Portable SSD we recently reviewed, and offers up to 2TB of storage that can be transferred at a blistering 540MB/s.

I briefly mentioned the modern design, and both the Mobile Drive and Mobile SSD have a new diamond-cut design complementing Apple's MacBook aesthetics and is a departure from the bright orange of the Rugged line or the glossy finish of the Porche line. LaCie Mobile Drive features a 2-year limited warranty, while LaCie Mobile SSD offers a 3-year limited warranty and a 3-year subscription to Seagate Rescue Data Recovery plan. Both new drives are available in January.
