On display at CES 2014 this week is a hard drive that has been forged from a collaboration between Christofle and LaCie, both world renowned for their respective artistry in silver working and storage devices. The functional work of art precisely plated in silver and polished to perfection features 1TB of storage accessed via a high-speed USB 3.0 port, making file transfers and backups nearly three times faster than with USB 2.0. No power cord is required since it is charged through the USB cable giving the gleaming sphere a clean look. With easy setup for both macs and PCs, more efficient power usage, and LaCie’s Private-Public file protection for complete confidentiality the beauty of this piece of tech is more than just skin deep. $490
