Comments :
* Adapter cable (sold separately from www.lacie.com/accessories ) required. File speeds limited to FireWire 400 speeds.
** Maximum interface transfer rate = theoretical bus bandwidth, whereas burst transfer rate = maximum drive speed. Tests conducted in RAID0 with 3TB hard disks. Speeds depend on the RAID mode selected, and average transfer rates vary from one computer to another and from one drive to another.
*** Full terms and conditions available at www.wuala.com/lacie. ^ Windows XP 32-bit does not support volumes with capacities exceeding 2TB.
1TB (Terabyte) = 1000GB. 1 GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes. Total accessible capacity varies depending upon operating environment (typically 5-10% less).

Specifications and appearance are given as guidelines and may change without notice.
