Trusted and Proven Design
With the 2big Network, LaCie’s tradition of functional, high-end
design continues. Its heat sink metal construction naturally draws
heat away from the hard disk’s internal components to help keep
it cool and improve reliability, and its smart fan ensures quiet
operation, when you need it most. The LaCie 2big Network can
be stacked or rackmounted to conform to every work environment.
The large glowing blue button adds more than character—it
functions as a one-click data-sharing button for automatic file
transfers from a USB key. Just push the button; your data is
immediately sharable with your colleagues.
