MINIMUM SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
Your system must meet certain requirements in order for your LaCie product to function properly. For a list of
these requirements, please refer to the product packaging or consult the product support web page at
www.lacie.com/support/.

transfer speeds for which your LaCie USB 3.0 hard drive is capable.
If you require USB 3.0 drivers for your computer, you can download them from the LaCie website.

HARD DISK HEAT MANAGEMENT
Heat Dissipation Design
This LaCie product's metal body is ideal for naturally dissipating internal drive heat. Its unique design actually
draws heat away from the internal drive toward the external casing. The large surface area of the heat sink
casing absorbs internal heat and dissipates it, keeping the drive safe and prolonging its life and reliability.
As a consequence, it is normal that the external casing is warm to the touch. Please make sure that
the vent on the back-bezel is not obstructed and that there is a natural airflow across the casing.
Upright, Stack & Rackmount Configuration
Heat dissipation is maximized when this LaCie product is in the upright position. When stacking LaCie products,
please remember to attach the included rubber feet (if included) on the under side of your drives. This will allow
for some airflow between your drives so that the heat dissipation can work effectively. LaCie does not
recommend stacking or racking more than three drives on top of each other, especially if these drives are
turned on simultaneously.

CABLES AND CONNECTORS
USB 3.0
USB is a serial input/output technology for connecting peripheral devices to a computer. SuperSpeed USB 3.0 is
the latest implementation of this standard, and it provides higher bandwidth and new power management
features.
Transfer rates can attain up to 5 Gbits/s as opposed to USB 2.0's 480 Mbits/s. This means USB 3.0 is
theoretically up to ten times faster than its predecessor.
Your LaCie drive is shipped with a SuperSpeed USB 3.0 cable to ensure maximum data transfer performance
when connected to a compatible USB 3.0 port. The cable will also work when connected to a USB 2.0 or 1.1 port,
but drive performance will be limited to their respective transfer rates.

FIREWIRE 800
FireWire, also known as IEEE 1394, is a high-speed serial input/output technology for connecting peripheral
devices to a computer or to each other, and FireWire 800 is the implementation of the new IEEE 1394b standard.
FireWire 800 offers increased bandwidth and extended distance between devices. FireWire 800 is ideal for
bandwidth-intensive applications, such as audio, video and graphics.

Note: FireWire 800 is backwards compatible with FireWire 400, which means that if you have an adapter
cable, you can connect your LaCie FireWire 800 product to a FireWire 400 port on your computer. In this
case, file transfers will be limited to FireWire 400 speeds. If your product does not include an adapter cable
in the package, you can purchase one from www.lacie.com/accessories/.

ESATA
Your LaCie product offers the latest in SATA technology, allowing interface (or bus) transfer rates of up to 3
Gbits/s. SATA technology was originally developed to serve as an internal interface, delivering improved
performance to internal connections.
Soon after, eSATA, or external SATA was developed, allowing for the use of shielded cables outside the PC.
eSATA technology was developed to be rugged and durable. eSATA connectors do not have the “L” shaped
design of other SATA connectors. In addition, the guide features are vertically offset and reduced in size to
prevent the use of unshielded internal cables in external applications.

d2 Quadra USB 3.0 User Manual 12
STEP 2 - CONNECT THE INTERFACE CABLE
Connect the interface cable from the drive to the computer.
Important info regarding the interfaces: Only one interface type may be used to connect your
computer to the device. For example, the USB 3.0 and FireWire 800 interfaces cannot be used at the same
time. If you accidentally connect two types of interfaces at once, you may need to restart the device for
proper operation.
Technical note:
FireWire Connection:
Daisy chaining multiple non-powered FireWire devices may effect individual performance. To guarantee
optimal performance, LaCie recommends daisy chaining powered FireWire devices to your LaCie hard drive.
FireWire 800 is backwards-compatible with FireWire 400, which means that if you have an adapter cable,
you can connect your LaCie FireWire 800 product to a FireWire 400 port on your computer. In this case, file
