Toolkit Op mize
Use Toolkit Optimize to format your drive for optimal performance with your operating system’s native file
format. File transfer rates can be significantly better with the native format.
1. Connect LaCie Mobile SSD to your computer.
2. Open Toolkit.
3. On the Main Menu, click on the LaCie Mobile Drive device.
4. Click on the More menu icon for the volume you want to optimize. There are two options:
OPTIMIZE— Let Toolkit choose the optimal format for your computer system and configure the
volume for you with just a few clicks.
FORMAT— Opens the disk management utility for your operating system, which you can use to
manually format your drive. Use this option if you want to format the drive in non-native formats.
Formatting erases everything on the storage device.
