4.1.1. USB 2.0 Cables and Connectors
USB is a serial input/output technology for connecting 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.
Included USB Cable
Your LaCie drive is shipped with a mini Hi-Speed USB 2.0 cable,
to ensure maximum data transfer performance when connected to
a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port. The cable will also work when connected
to a USB 1.1 port, but drive performance will be limited to USB 1.1
transfer rates.
