Setting Up Your LaCie Dupli Disc DVD125
3.2. Connecting Via USB
Your LaCie Dupli-125 can also be used as a standard
USB DVD±RW when connected to any USB-equipped
Mac or PC.
This feature is useful for creating Master CDs/DVDs.
However please note that, in USB mode duplication is
no longer possible, as you will only be able to use one
of the DVD±RW drives (the top drive). Once you have
created your master disc, you will need to switch back to
Standalone mode to duplicate it.
TeChNICAl NOTe:
Note that only the top
drive (named 00 IDE0) can be connected via USB
(regardless of whether it is your source drive or not).
The top drive is the default source drive (see page

Connect the duplicator to your PC or Mac via the
USB 2.0 port on the back of the duplicator.

CAUTION:
When returning to standalone

Once USB is activated, the top drive will operate as a
standard external DVD burner on your Mac or PC. Use
the bundled software to create CD or DVD masters.
Make sure that you are using the duplicator on a
Hi-Speed USB 2.0 host. Connected to a USB 1.1 host,
the drive will only record CDs at 4x maximum. DVD
recording with USB 1.1 is not possible due to the lim-
ited transfer rate of the USB 1.1 interface.
