FireWire 400, also known as IEEE 1394, is a high-speed serial
input/output technology or connecting peripheral devices to a
computer or to each other, and FireWire 800 is the implemen-
tation o the new IEEE 1394b standard.
FireWire 800 oers increased bandwidth and extended distance
between devices. FireWire 800 is ideal or bandwidth-intensive
applications, such as audio, video and graphics.
Included FireWire Cables
Your LaCie d2 Quadra comes with a FireWire 400 cable and
a FireWire 800 cable.
1.4. Cables and Connectors
1.4.1. FireWire 400 and 800 Cables and Connectors
FireWire Benefts
Hot-pluggable: devices can be added and removedwhile the bus is active.
Isochronous data delivery: no dropped rames FireWiresupports real-time data delivery.
Flexible: up to 63 devices can be connected on a singlebus.
FireWire 800 reduces delays in arbitration and signaldistortion, and increases throughput.
Backwards compatibility: adapter cables allow FireWire400 devices to operate under the FireWire 800 port (atFireWire 400 speed).

1.4.2. USB Cables and Connectors
USB is a serial input/output technology or connecting periph-
eral devices to a computer or to each other. Hi-Speed USB 2.0is the latest implementation o this standard, and it provides the
necessary bandwidth and data transer rates to support high
speed devices such as hard drives, CD/DVD drives and digital
cameras.
Included USB Cable
Your LaCie drive is shipped with a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 cable, to
ensure maximum data transer perormance when connected toa Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port. The cable will also work when con-
nected to a USB port, but drive perormance will be limited to
USB 1.1 transer rates.
USB Cable Ends
Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Benefts
Backwards compatibility: Hi-Speed USB 2.0 works withthe original USB specications.
Hot-swappable: no need to shut down or restart yourcomputer when adding or removing devices.

1.4.3. eSATA Cables and Connectors
Your LaCie d2 Quadra uses the latest in SATA technology, al-
lowing interace (or bus) transer rates o up to 3 Gbits/s. SATAtechnology was originally developed to serve as an internal
interace, delivering improved perormance to internal connec-
tions. Soon ater, eSATA, or external SATA was developed, al-
lowing or the use o shielded cables outside the PC.
eSATA technology was developed to be rugged and durable.
eSATA connectors do not have the L shaped design o other
SATA connectors. In addition, the guide eatures are vertically
oset and reduced in size to prevent the use o unshielded in-ternal cables in external applications.
Included eSATA Cable
Your LaCie drive is shipped with a eSATA cable, to ensure max-
imum data transer perormance when connected to a eSATA
port.

eSATA Benefts
eSATA interace can achieve up to 3 Gbits/s transerrate.
Plug orientation An extrusion on the outside o theconnector helps guide and align the connector duringinsertion.
Hot-plug support eSATA enables adding and remov-
ing a drive without having to power down the system orreboot.

FireWire 400 and FireWire 800 interaces allow you to connect
another hard drive, a DVDRW writer or a digital video cam-
era directly to the LaCie d2 Quadra (this connection is called
daisy-chaining).
To daisy-chain devices, you must be using the same interace
(FireWire). Your computer will not recognize the daisy-chained
device i the interaces are mixed, i.e. a FireWire device at-
tached to a drive that is connected to the computer via the
Hi-Speed USB 2.0 interace.
TeCHNICAl NOTe: When you daisy-chain using a mix o
interaces (FireWire 400 and FireWire 800) the resultant speed
will be limited to the lowest common denominator (FireWire
400 speeds).
Connect your LaCie d2 Quadras power supply and host
computer interace by ollowing the steps in sections 2.1 to
2.3.
To attach a digita vido caa*:
Using the iLink/DV cable (sold separately), connect the
4-pin end o the cable to the 4-pin port on your digital
camera.
Connect the 6-pin end o the iLink/DV cable to the 6-pinFireWire port on the back o the LaCie Hard drive (C).
To attach a iWi iha:
Connect the FireWire 400 or 800 cable into an available
FireWire 400 or 800 port on your FireWire peripheral.
Attach the other end o the FireWire 400 or 800 cable to
an available FireWire 400 or 800 port on the LaCie d2

3. Optional Formatting and Partitioning
The rst time you use your LaCie hard disk, LaCie Setup Assis-tant ormats your drive according to your needs. I your needs
change, you can reormat your LaCie Hard Disk to optimize it
or use with Windows or Mac, or or cross-platorm use. For
example, i you used LaCie Setup Assistant to ormat your drive
to work with your Mac (HFS+), but now you want to share
your hard disk with Windows users, you can reormat it to
FAT 32 (MS-DOS) or this purpose.
You may need to ormat your LaCie hard disk i LaCie Setup
Assistant was interrupted or stopped. I the hard disk does not
appear in My Computer (Windows) or on the desktop (Mac), it
may not be ormatted properly.
What is Formatting?When a disk is ormatted, the ollowing things occur: the op-
erating system erases all o the bookkeeping inormation on
the disk, tests the disk to make sure that all o the sectors are
reliable, marks bad sectors (i.e., those that are scratched) and
creates internal address tables that it later uses to locate inor-
mation. A hard disk must be ormatted beore it can be used
to store data.
What is Partitioning?
You can also divide the hard disk into sections, called parti-tions. A partition is a section o the hard disks storage capacity
that is created to contain les and data. For instance, you could
create three partitions on your drive: one partition or your o-
ce documents, one as a backup and one or your multimedia
