Question
Answer
What is the probability that a fingerprint
from an unauthorized user can unlock
the Rugged Safe?
Such an event is nearly impossible due to the biometry technology. Each human has his own
biological identity, including unique fingerprints, thus making unauthorized entry all but un-
thinkable. To provide further assurance, LaCie has selected a sensor known for its precision.
What happens if the fingerprint sensor is
damaged?
Please contact LaCie Customer Support. Make certain to back up all stored data in the event
that you have to return the Rugged Safe.
What happens if the administrator is not
available?
LaCie highly recommends giving at least two people Administration privileges in case one per-
son leaves the company or is not available. LaCie does not take responsibility in the event that
the Administrator becomes unavailable to access the data on the LaCie Rugged Safe.
Can the Rugged Safe be used on a
network?
The LaCie Rugged Safe can only be used via USB 2.0 or FireWire 800/400 interfaces.
What do the LED colors indicate?
If the LED is:
✦
Blinking Red: the disk is locked and waiting for an authorized user to swipe his registered
finger; or, the finger swipe failed.
✦
Static Orange, the disk is attempting to recognize a fingerprint
✦
Fixed Green, the drive is unlocked
✦
Blinking Green, data is being accessed
