Interface & Data Transfer Information

User Manual 

page 20

A data transfer is the flow of data that accomplishes a task, usu-
ally related to moving data from storage to computer RAM or 
between storage devices. During data transfers, it’s best to wait 
before launching other applications on the same USB 2.0 port. 
Anomalies may arise with computers that have USB 2.0 control-
lers that do not conform to OHCI (Open Host Controller Inter-
face) standards. In any other configurations, we cannot ensure 
100% correct operation.

If you experience hanging problems, proceed as follows:

1.  Make sure that the USB cable is connected tightly and se-

curely on both ends of the cable, from the drive to the com-
puter.

2.  Check that the power supply is properly connected.

3.  Disconnect your computer’s USB cable. Wait 30 seconds. 

Reconnect.

LaCie may periodically offer firmware updates for the hard disk. 
Visit LaCie’s Web site, 

, for the latest firmware up-

date. For the procedure, please contact LaCie technical support.

 

 Controller - A controller is a component 

or an electronic card (referred to in this case as a “controller 
card”) that enables a computer to communicate with or manage 
certain peripherals. An external controller is an expansion card 
which fills one of the free slots (i.e. PCI or PCMCIA) inside your 
PC and which enables a peripheral (ex. CD-R/RW drive, scanner 
or printer) to be connected to the computer. If your computer is 
not equipped with a USB controller card, you can purchase an 
external controller through LaCie. Contact your LaCie reseller or
