6.1.5. STEP 5: LaCie Network Assistant: Install
LaCie Network Assistant software detects all LaCie network attached
storage devices on your network and gives you easy ways to connect
to or configure them.
Once installed and running, LaCie Network Assistant (LNA) will ap-
pear in your task bar (Windows users) or in the menu bar (Mac us-
ers) and automatically search for storage devices on your network.
When a new device is found, the icon will blink.
When the LNA finds your LaCinema Classic HD on the network,
you can connect to the mounted volume or configure the LaCinema
Classic HD’s network settings.
TECHNICAL NOTE:
As an alternative to using the LaCie Network
Assistant to access the drive, you can use its IP address to open a
network (SMB) connection. See section

Connection Methods
for more details. The IP address can be found
by using the remote control to navigate to
Settings > Network >
