Introduction

User Manual 

page 

Thank you for purchasing the new LaCie d2 Quadra with qua-
druple  Interface.  Combining  universal  compatibility  with  high 
throughput rates and mammoth storage capacity, the Quadra is 
ideally suited for audio/video pros working with large amounts 
of DV and SD video or professional level 2D/3D imaging proj-
ects, or high speed data backup.

With its four interfaces, the d2 Quadra is universally compat-
ible with almost any computer and can be daisy-chained with 
peripherals or expanded via FireWire.   

Engineered  to  fit  seamlessly  in  to  any  work  environment,  the 
LaCie d2 Quadra can be stood vertically on the LaCie Drive 
Stand  (included),  placed  in  the  LaCie  Desk  Rack  (sold  sepa-
rately) or incorporated into standard 19” computer equipment 
racks with the LaCie Rackmount Kit (sold separately).

The improved passive heat dissipation design by Neil Poulton 
provides  natural  cooling  by  increasing  the  surface  area  over 
which heat can leave the d2 Quadra for better thermal regula-
tion and longer life.
