Installing Your LaCie Hard Drive
3.3. Connecting Multiple Devices
With both FireWire 400 and FireWire 800 inter-
faces, it is possible to connect another hard drive or digi-
tal video camera directly to the LaCie d2 Quadra (this
connection is called “daisy-chaining”).
To daisy-chain devices, you must be using the same
interface (FireWire). Your computer will not recognize
the daisy-chained device if the interfaces are mixed, i.e. a
FireWire device attached to a drive that is connected to
the computer via the Hi-Speed USB 2.0 interface.
1. Connect your LaCie d2 Quadra’s power supply and
host computer interface by following the steps on
page 15 and on 17 (FireWire 400) or 18 (FireWire
800) (A/B).
2. To attach a digital video camera*:
a. Using the iLink/DV cable (sold separately), con-
nect the 4-pin end of the cable to the 4-pin port on
your digital camera.
b. Connect the 6-pin end of the iLink/DV cable to
the 6-pin FireWire port on the back of the LaCie
Hard drive (C).
To attach a FireWire peripheral:
a. Connect the FireWire 400 or 800 cable into
an available FireWire 400 or 800 port on your
FireWire peripheral.
b. Attach the other end of the FireWire 400 or 800
cable to an available FireWire 400 or 800 port on
the LaCie d2 Quadra (C).
3. The digital camera should now appear under My
Computer (Windows users) or on the desktop (Mac
users).

TeChNICAl NOTe: When you daisy-chain
using a mix of interfaces (FireWire 400 and
FireWire 800) the resultant speed will be limited
to the lowest common denominator (FireWire
400 speeds).
* Some cameras do not support this configuration or may
downgrade your LaCie
