MODEL- LAC301256U         VENDOR- LACIE
    
FEATURES- LaCie 2big Triple (2-disk RAID)- 2 TB
       The 2big Triple comes with FireWire 800, FireWire 400 and USB 2.0 
        interfaces for PC or Mac users. This easy-to-use 2-disk RAID is 
        ideal for storing office data, archiving image banks or audio/video 
        editing. FireWire 800 delivers fast burst transfer rates of up to 
        90MB/s in RAID 0. Choose from among 4 RAID levels depending on your 
        needs: SAFE 100 (RAID 1) for maximum security (100% data redundancy 
        on each hot-swappable disk) with automatic data rebuilding if a 
        spare disk is needed; FAST (RAID 0) for maximum speed; BIG 
        (concatenation) for maximum capacity; or JBOD to use the disks 
        separately.
       Other advanced features include: two lockable drives; a heat sink 
        metal design for natural cooling; "On/Auto/Off" triple power 
        management; and rackmount configuration. EMC Retrospect Express 
        advanced backup management and data restoration software, which can 
        be launched by the LaCie Shortcut Button, is included for Windows & 
        Mac. 
    Includes 2big Triple; FireWire 800 to FireWire 800 (9-to-9 pin) cable;
      FireWire 400 to FireWire 400 (6-to-6 pin) cable; Hi-Speed USB 2.0 
      cable (USB 1.1 compatible); external power supply; LaCie Utilities 
      CD.
* Triple Interface & RAID Flexibility
   This easy-to-use two-disk device incorporates the three most universal 
   interfaces. It comes with two FireWire 800 ports, one FireWire 400 port 
   and one Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port for PC or Mac users. The 2big Triple is 
   ideal for storing office data and archiving image banks but also for 
   audio/video projects (DV and SD video playback or 2D/3D imaging 
   projects). Offering four different RAID levels, it meets any kind of 
   storage need: security, large capacity or speed. Simply select your RAID 
   level with the mechanical switch on the back.
* Security For Professional Data
   In SAFE 100 (RAID 1) configuration, the two disks are mirrored for 
   maximum security. Data is automatically duplicated to each drive so the 
   available capacity is reduced to 50%. If one drive fails in RAID 1, data 
   remains accessible and can even be automatically rebuilt onto a spare 
   drive (sold separately). For ensuring complete data security and 
   availability, the drives are hot-swappable. The 2big Triple comes with 
   award-winning EMC Retrospect Express for advanced backup management 
   and data restoration (Windows & Mac). Automatic backups of selected 
   files or folders can be scheduled to protect your data.
* High-Performance Storage
   The 2big Triple is the ultimate storage solution for audio/video and 
   creative professionals who need swift, reliable performance. FireWire 
   800 interface delivers impressively rapid burst transfer rates of up to 
   90MB/s in RAID 0 configuration. In FAST mode (hardware RAID 0), the 2big
   Triple uses the two SATA drives simultaneously to deliver maximum 
   performance. Select the BIG mode for maximum capacity or choose JBOD 
   wherein the two drives work independently.
* Superior Design
   The 2big's design is attractive, compact and allows for up to 2TB 
   capacity. The heat sink metal design naturally draws heat away from the 
   hard disk's internal components to help keep it cool and improve 
   reliability. With versatile configurations such as vertical, horizontal, 
   stacked or rack-mounted, it conforms to your work environment. It offers 
   triple power management: "Auto" for energy efficiency; "On" for instant
   access; or "Off" for data protection. The large glowing blue button on 
   the front functions as a Shortcut Button that can launch EMC Retrospect
   advanced backup software or any other application of your choosing.
