3.1. Connecting the Power Supply
There are two cables that are
supplied with the power supply: one
cable (A) connects to the LaCie
drive; and the other cable (B)
connects to a power outlet, such as a
wall outlet or a surge protector.
Connect Cable A to your LaCie Drive.
Connect Cable B to the Power Supply brick.
Connect Cable B to a surge protector or wall outlet.
You are now ready to connect the interface cable to your drive and to your computer.
Caution!
•Only use the AC adapter supplied with your specific LaCie drive. Do not use a power supply from another
LaCie drive or another manufacturer. Using any other power cable or power supply may cause damage to the
device and void your warranty.
•Always remove the AC adapter before transporting your LaCie drive. Failure to remove the adapter may result
in damage to your drive and will void your warranty.
Tech Note:
You may use your LaCie drive when in a foreign country, thanks to its autoswitching 100-240 Volt
power supply. To be able to use this feature, you may need to purchase an appropriate adapter or cord. Consult
LaCie Technical Support for assistance in choosing the right adapter. LaCie accepts no responsibility for any
damage to the drive resulting from the use of an inappropriate adapter. Using an adapter other than one
authorized by LaCie will void your warranty.
Tech Note:
If you are using the LaCie Serial ATA PCI Card to connect your LaCie d2 Serial ATA Hard Drive to
your computer, you are able to draw power from the PCI card to operate your hard drive. Please refer to the
LaCie Serial ATA PCI Card User’s Manual for guidelines and instructions.
