LaCie 5big Thunderbolt 2 User Manual 26
How to daisy chain
Connect the cable to one of the interface ports on the back of the LaCie 5big and to your computer. The
additional port may be used to daisy chain compatible first generation Thunderbolt and Thunderbolt 2
peripherals, such as hard drives and monitors. If you have another Thunderbolt 2 storage device, make certain
to connect it to the LaCie 5big before adding first generation Thunderbolt technology devices and/or displays.
Important cable info: When connecting your enclosure to a computer or compatible devices, use cables
specifically constructed to support Thunderbolt technology. Thunderbolt technology cables are compatible
with Thunderbolt 2 technology devices and first generation Thunderbolt technology devices.
Important info: To reach Thunderbolt 2 technology transfer rates up to 20Gb/s bi-directional, the LaCie
5big Thunderbolt 2 must be connected to a computer that supports Thunderbolt 2 technology. Connecting
the LaCie 5big to a computer that supports first generation Thunderbolt technology allows for transfer rates
up to 10Gb/s bi-directional.
Daisy chain: idle mode
You can daisy chain Thunderbolt 2 technology and first generation Thunderbolt technology devices even when
the LaCie 5big hard drives are spun down. Apply a short push on the LED power button (see Operation). The
status LED will blink slowly, indicating that the LaCie 5big is in idle mode.
