In this paper, we use the type Ia supernovae data to constrain the holographic dark energy model proposed by Li. We also apply a cosmic age test to this analysis. We consider in this paper a spatially flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe with a matter component and a holographic dark energy component. The fit result shows that the case c<1 (c=0.21) is favored, which implies that the holographic dark energy behaves as a quintom-type dark energy. Furthermore, we also perform a joint analysis of SNe+CMB+LSS to this model; the result is well improved and still upholds the quintom dark energy conclusion. The best fit results in our analysis are c=0.81, {omega}{sub m}{sup 0}=0.28, and h=0.65, which lead to the present equation of state of dark energy w{sub 0}=-1.03 and the deceleration/acceleration transition redshift z{sub T}=0.63. Finally, an expected supernova/acceleration probe simulation using {lambda}CDM as a fiducial model is performed on this model, and the result shows that the holographic dark energy model takes on c<1 (c=0.92) even though the dark energy is indeed a cosmological constant.
