Setup Steps
1. Connect the power supply.
2. Connect the USB, FireWire or eSATA cable 
to your computer and to the drive.
NOTE: Do not connect more than one
interface cable simultaneously.
3. Turn on the drive by moving the power
switch to
On or Auto (drive powers on/
hibernates automatically). The drive will 
mount in My Computer (Windows) or on 
your desktop (Mac). 
NOTE: This product is pre-formatted in 
HFS+, so Windows users will need to 
reformat the disk before using the d2 
Quadra Enterprise. Refer to the detailed 
User Manual located on the LaCie 
CD-ROM for formatting information.
4. Install the LaCie Desktop Manager software 
 from the CD-ROM in order to configure 
 encryption and the Shortcut button. 
CAUTION: The encryption process requires 
the drive to be reformatted, which will 
erase data stored on the d2 Quadra. 
Back up data before enabling encryption.
