Seriously, I am returning a product I've used many times in past because LaCie's new management has NO way to reach them: they are telling me that my phone number is invalid. I know, eyes rolling, she must be doing this wrong, but I am not (I finally called my coworkers to ask them if I was losing my mind). And there is no way to reach them for product support on the issue without giving them my phone number (even via email) so I cannot contact them so I am returning this very expensive drive. Was a wonderful wonderful company, bought by Seagate, which is a dive company, and now they are taking LaCie down with them.
I bought a 2017 27" iMac on day 1. This computer has Thunderbolt 3.
I bought this drive (6 TB TB3 model) to start replacing my LaCie drives from 2009. The old LaCie drives (2big USB 2 and d2 USB 3) were still going strong but I figured they're over 8 years old and they've served their purpose.
With my good experience with LaCie I decided to go with them again.
LaCie quotes the speed to reach 220 MB/s using the included Thunderbolt 3 cable and Thunderbolt 3 port on my drive/iMac. Using Blackmagic test, I got 210 MB/s peak. Speeds were under what LaCie claims but not enough to make me regret the purchase. (I believe Seagate's website claims the drive in my d2 can only do 210 MB/s so I'm not sure why LaCie added an additional 10 MB/S to their claim.)
The drive enclosure seems to wick heat away from the drive nicely. I'm using the drive as an encrypted Time Machine backup. The encryption process for a drive this size took ~5 days. During this time, the drive was at 100% usage yet the enclosure only was warm (not hot) and the fan remained silent.
The bottom of the drive has a great rubber strip to absorb vibration and noise. It works great!
Unfortunately, the Thunderbolt 3 cable can only reach lengths of 1.5 feet at 40 GB/s. You'll have to keep the drive close to the computer. (There are TB3 cables longer than 1.5 feet that claim they can handle 40GB/s but this seems to go outside the official standard. This isn't an issue caused by LaCie but a limitation of any TB3 product that isn't commonly shared.
I also like the 5 year warranty and enterprise grade drives in use.
Overall, this is a great drive after 1 month of usage.

Terrible drive, died in less than a month being stationary. I never write reviews but was so disappointed in what I thought would be a quality drive. Stick to Wd.
Nice, solid, quite and reliable. While a Thunderbolt 3 device, this is essentially a standard external SATA hard drive with a USB-C T3 connecting cable. The theoretical 40GB of transfer rate are structurally unachievable due to the sped limit of the HD. So, expect 220+MBps regardless of the Thunderbolt 3 interface. Totally expected and the raring 3 out of 5 reflects the disconnection between the T3 component and its real performance. Wished laCie had made available the cache card offered for the T2 version
