The drive doesn’t appear
on the network.
By default the Ethernet Disk mini is configured to retrieve its IP address from a DHCP server.
If your network is managed by a DHCP server and you cannot access your Ethernet Disk
mini, try to check your DHCP server’s log. To get the IP address, map the network with the
LaCie
IP configurator
software tool, which is located on the LaCie Storage Utilities CD-ROM.
If your network is NOT managed by a DHCP server, the Ethernet Disk mini uses its default IP
address, which is
192.168.1.100
.
To change this IP address via the network, use the LaCie
IP Configurator
software tool.
Otherwise you can use the
Edmini LogOn
tool in order to change this default IP address.

A user does not have ac-
cess to the LaCie Ethernet
Disk mini.
Has the administrator created
that specific user?
In order for a another user to access the LaCie Ethernet Disk
mini, two conditions must be met: 1) the administrator must
create and register a user with the appropriate privileges;
2) the LaCie Ethernet Disk mini must be connected to the
network via Ethernet for additional users to access the drive.
Otherwise, when the LaCie Ethernet Disk mini is attached via
USB, it can only be accessed by the user who’s computer the
drive is connected to.
