Introduction

Congratulations on the purchase of your new LaCie

2big Dual. is high-performance, extremely ﬂexible

RAID (Redundant Array of Independent/Inexpensive

Disks) subsystem is ideally suited for integration with

databases, imaging systems and e-mail and Web serv-

ers.

RAID technology is one of the best means to pro-

tect your data, while providing greater data integrity

and availability than standard hard disk storage. With

the ability to provide single error detection and redun-

dant information to recover the original if a disk fails, a

RAID system is an ideal means to safe-guard valuable

data while also stream-lining performance.

e LaCie 2big is the ultimate approach to a ﬂex-

ible RAID solution, with its ability to manage various

RAID levels for a wide range of applications.

Introduction

Your LaCie 2big Dual uses the latest in SATA tech-

nology, featuring transfer rates of up to 3Gb/s. e Two

Big comes equipped with an eSATA port and an exter-

nal SATA cable. SATA technology was originally de-

veloped to serve as an internal interface, delivering im-

proved 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 pre-

vent the use of unshielded internal cables in external ap-

plications.

eSATA Cables

e cables and connectors used to attach Serial ATA

drives to your computer are as follows:

TeChNICAl NOTe: To achieve USB 2.0

speeds, your drive must be connected to a USB 2.0

host port. If it is connected to a USB 1.0 port, your

drive will operate at USB 1.0 speeds.

USB is a serial input/output technology for connect-

ing peripheral devices to a computer or to each other.

Hi-Speed USB 2.0 is the latest implementation of this

standard, and it provides the necessary bandwidth and

data transfer rates to support high speed devices such as

hard drives, CD/DVD drives and digital cameras.

USB 2.0 Cables

Your LaCie drive is shipped with a Hi-Speed USB

2.0 cable to ensure maximum data transfer performance

when connected to a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port.
