LaCie Ethernet Disk mini
User Manual
2.4. Cables And Connectors
The LaCie Ethernet Disk mini offers two different methods for connection and usage.
2.4.1. Hi-Speed USB 2.0
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.
Benefits of the USB standard include:
• Backwards compatibility: Hi-Speed USB 2.0 works with the original USB specifications.
USB Cables
Your LaCie drive is shipped with a 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 port, but drive performance will be limited
to USB 1.1 transfer rates.
2.4.2. Ethernet
A LAN (Local Area Network) technology, based on the IEEE 802.3 standard,
is used by a group of computers and associated devices that share a com-
mon communication line and typically share the resources of a single proces-
sor or server within a small geographic area.
The most common Ethernet systems are 10BASE-T, which provides transmission speeds up to 10Mb/s, and 100BASE-T (also
known as Fast Ethernet), which provides transmission speeds up to 100Mb/s.
Ethernet Cables
Your LaCie drive is shipped with 10/100 Ethernet cable, and works with either 10BASE-T or 100BASE-T networks.
Your LaCie Ethernet Disk mini
TeChNICAl NOTe:
The LaCie Ethernet Disk mini is also compatible with Gigabit Ethernet, when the drive is con-
nected to a 100Mb/1Gb Ethernet switch. Transfer rates, however, will not be improved by connecting your Ethernet
Disk mini to a 100Mb/1Gb Ethernet switch.
ImpOrTANT INfO:
Do not unplug the power chord or turn off the power strip to turn the Ethernet Disk mini on or
off. When connected via the Ethernet cable, use the On/Off power button to properly shut down the drive.
