LaCie 301257U 2big NAS Hard Drive 1 TB

The LaCie 2big Network represents the new generation of shared storage with security. Enables you to easily share professional files and to make them accessible from anywhere via FTP or HTTP. It can act as a file-sharing server, a backup server or an FTP server. Available network capacity can be expanded by attaching up to 2 USB hard drives.


LaCie 301257U 2big NAS Hard Drive 1 TB Features :

• Ethernet for file sharing
• RAID 1 mode with automatic data-rebuilding
• 2 hot swappable disks with locks
• 1-click data sharing for automatic file transfers
• 2 USB ports for storage expansion

The new user-friendly LaCie Ethernet Agent makes setup simple and enables accessing, mapping and configuring the drives on your office's network.

The 2big Network's compatibility with Mac, Windows and Linux machines without having to install drivers make it the ideal file-sharing solution for small businesses. Get maximum storage capacity or extra data security in one affordable yet professional 2-disk RAID solution. Easily select your RAID mode with the manual switch on the back of the drive.

For maximum capacity, choose BIG with concatenation of the two hard drives. For maximum protection, choose SAFE 100 (RAID 1) for automatic mirroring of one disk to the other (available capacity = 50%); if one disk fails, data remains accessible on the other one and the defective disk can be replaced easily with an optional hot-swappable disk.(Sold Separately)
The heat sink metal design naturally draws heat away from the hard disk's internal components to help keep it cool and improve reliability. The 2big Network can be stacked or rackmounted. The large glowing blue button adds more than character - it functions as a 1-click data-sharing button for automatic file transfers from a USB key. Just push the button; your data is immediately sharable with your colleagues.
