In fact, it has equipped the Innov8 with USB-C alongside with Ignition Boost so a desktop-grade 3.5″ drive can run on USB bus power. Note that the Seagate will only work with USB Type-C port as it is capable of delivering the extra juice needed to spin up the 8TB drive as well as to recharge the unit’s internal battery.

While most deep pocket professionals have been buying the designer drives for their looks, the addition of USB Type-C connector on LaCie’s desktop storage series provides a more logical and practical reason to upgrade. With LaCie’s adoption of the vertically symmetrical USB plug, you are no longer stuck with stock laptop chargers as the multi-terabyte drive also recharges your laptop (up to 30W). You would obviously need a laptop or tablet with USB-C to enjoy LaCie’s battery charging capability. Though, only a handful are available for you to choose from as of this writing.
