My LaCie 6Big runs slow via Thunderbolt on Monterey 12.3.1 on Apple Silicon (M1 Max).
I have tried different TB3 cables. Re-installed LRM. Checked Security in Prefs and boot options.

Issue solved on M1 Max with the new LRM version 2.9.4.
Use in-app Update option.

Are you using the cables supplied by LaCie? My LaCie drives failed to operate at any reasonable speed unless I used the cable that came in the package.
If no joy there, contact LaCie and request a warranty replacement if the drive is new. If it's an old drive, it may just be tired and slowing down because of age related failures within the circuitry.
It’s not fixed as you stated, with no comment from Apple as usual. They are aware of this issue and if past is any indication they will not acknowledge it. There are some work around of connection with external display or TB3 on both thunderbolt ports to get speed boost. I haven’t tested yet but clearly with so many people reporting this as an issue , this a bug. For a company that spend a lot of time on engineering it is strange that such obvious things are overlooked by them . At the moment you can only wait and hope that Apple meets the speciations on the product and fix this problem.
Seems to be a known problem with M1 Macs. See:
Got this pop-up message a couple of days ago. The link goes to About system extensions and macOS - Apple Support
I've been using the cable that came with the drive. I have also tried CalDigit and Belkin Thunderbolt cables. Did not solve the issue.
Yes I've emailed to support and waiting for reply now.
Yep, I've seen that too. But you always hope you're the exception that proves the rule.
I have this exact same problem with a 5Big and M1 Ultra write speeds are terrible
The issue is still there on macOS 12.4
Still there
Not fixed with a 5 big on an M1 Ultra here even on 2.9.4... still seeing only double digit write speeds
