Our Verdict

If you think that LaCie’s latest network attached storage product, the 2Big NAS, looks like something you’ve seen before, you’re right. But beneath the familiar appearance (the basic design of the 2Big has been around since 2007), there are a number of differences under the hood.

Setup

The initial setup was pretty easy. Simply plug the 2Big NAS into your network router and install the included LaCie Network Assistant software on your Mac. It was simple to load the preconfigured Public share or to create one of your own.

In use

In our performance tests, the 2Big NAS was an average performer, writing a 10GB file at 40.6 MBps, and reading that same file at 71.6 MBps. It was slower when handling a 10GB folder full of smaller files and folders, writing at just 12.7 MBps and reading at 34.7 MBps.
