8.1. External Hard Drive: Connection
Before you can back up files, you need to connect a hard drive to
your Internet Space 2 via the USB port on the back. LaCie recom-
mends that you use a hard drive that is USB 2.0 compatible.
TECHNICAL NOTE:
The Internet Space 2 is not compatible with
external hard drives using HFS+ (Macintosh) format. Connect a
drive formatted in NTFS or MS-DOS (FAT32). Refer to your external
hard drive’s user documentation for information about the file sys-
tem format.
1. Make sure your Internet Space 2 is turned on and connected to
your network.
2. Connect the external USB hard drive’s power cable (if it has
one) and turn it on (if applicable).
3. Connect the external hard drive’s USB cable to the USB port on
the back of the Internet Space 2, just like you would connect the
external hard drive to your computer (
Fig. 73
).
4. Confirm that the drive is properly connected. Log in to HipServ
Application (Web Portal) and click on the Administer HipServ
link. Click on
USB
under
System
(
Fig. 74
). If an error message
appears, the drive must be formatted. You can format a con-
nected drive by clicking the
Format
button next to the drive’s
listing.
