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/.

Note: For optimal performance through the USB connection, the drive must be connected to a USB 3.0 host

port. Many laptops or desktop computers do not feature USB 3.0 ports. You can purchase a USB 3.0 PCI

Express Card (for desktop computers) or a USB 3.0 ExpressCard 34 (for laptops) from LaCie that will permit

CABLES AND CONNECTORS

THUNDERBOLT

Your LaCie product features Thunderbolt technology, the most flexible interface ever created. This exciting new

high-speed cable technology connects your computers and electronic devices together like never before.

Thunderbolt technology supports two 10Gb/s bi-directional channels from a single port, the fastest data

connection available on a personal computer. At 10Gb/s, a full-length HD movie can be transferred in less than

30 seconds.

Thanks to support for both data streams and mini DisplayPort video, you can connect either a storage peripheral

or a display to a Thunderbolt port. However, it's not possible to use a mini DisplayPort cable to connect a

storage peripheral to a Thunderbolt port. You must use a Thunderbolt cable.

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.
