LaCie is one of the better-known external drive makers in the photographic space, and the company is starting to sweeten their offerings with one-year online backup from the online-storage provider Carbonite. Beginning in November, each drive sold from LaCie will have a free account with the backup company. The Mac version of the backup tools are currently in beta (we're guessing they'll be final some time in November?) so this will be good for both platforms.
