3. Installing Your LaCie PCI Card
3.1. Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
IMPORTANT INFO: During installation or removal, always
hold your card by the anti-static gripping pad.
Static electricity is an electric charge caused by an imbalance of
electrons on the surface of a material. When you touch an object
and are shocked, this is the transfer of the static charge or the
balancing of your charge to that of the object. This exchange is
called Electrostatic Discharge or ESD.
ESD can cause two different types of damage to computers and
peripherals: (1) Catastrophic, which is the complete loss of de-
vice functionality, and (2) Latent Defect, where the device is only
partially effected, and the device loses part of its productivity and
longevity.
Because we cannot eliminate the generation of static electricity,
it is extremely important to follow the proper steps to ground
yourself before handling your LaCie USB 2.0 / FireWire 400
& 800 PCI Card or touching any internal component of your
computer. This can be accomplished by proper grounding in
conjunction with the use of ESD safe mats, wrist or shoe straps.
Consult your computer supply specialist for more details on the
correct ESD dissipative device to fit your needs.

3.2. Inserting Your LaCie PCI Card
Required Tools
✦Philips-head and/or flat-head screw driver
✦Computer System Manual
1. Turn off your computer and disconnect all external periph-
eral devices and cables, i.e. power cord, modem/fax line,
monitor, etc.
2. Remove your computer’s cover. For most computers, several
screws will need to be unseated before you can remove the
computer’s cover. These screws are usually located at the
rear of the computer, along the edge of the cover. However,
placement of these screws and cover attachment may vary by
manufacturer, so please refer to your computer’s manual for
specific details.
3. Once you have removed the cover, you will need to locate
the PCI slots on the motherboard. The PCI slots are generally
located in the back of the computer, with the slots built into
the side-wall of the computer (please refer to your computer
system’s manual for the exact location of your PCI slots – the
LaCie PCI Card may be installed in either a 32 or 64-bit PCI
card slot). If necessary, you may need to remove the expan-
sion slot cover, and you may also need to remove any add-in
boards which block access to the PCI slots.
4. Take the LaCie PCI Card out of its anti-static blister package
and, being careful to touch only the anti-static gripping pad,
push the card into the empty PCI card slot. There is only way
to mount the card, so if you are having problems inserting
the card into the PCI slot, make sure that it is oriented cor-
rectly. Be sure that the gold contact pins of the PCI card are
seated completely inside your computer’s PCI slot. Be aware
that it may take some force to get the card fully seated in
the slot.
5. Once the PCI card is seated correctly, tighten with a screw.
6. If necessary, replace any add-in boards that you removed
in Step 3.
7. Now you are ready to put the computer’s cover back on
and reconnect all of your external peripheral devices and
cables.
8. Power on your computer. After the start up procedure has
finished, you should be able to connect devices through the
available FireWire ports.

What Are The Benefits Of The USB Interfaces?
✦Cross-platform: Use your USB peripherals on both Mac and
Windows platforms.
✦“Hot Swappable”: No need to shut down or restart your
computer when adding or removing a USB device. Plug it
in and its ready.
✦Automatic configuration: Once your device is connected,
your computer recognizes the device and automatically
configures the necessary software.
✦Daisy-Chaining: with USB ports on your computer, you can
connect up to 127 peripherals using hubs.
✦Easy Installation: One standardized port and plug combi-
nation makes it simple to connect.
What Are The Ideal Uses For USB 1.0?
USB 1.0 is perfect for more traditional connections such as
keyboards, mice, joysticks and scanners. These types of devices
don’t require fast data transfer rates, and operate very success-
fully at the slower speeds.
What Are The Ideal Applications For Hi-Speed USB
2.0?
Digital cameras, CD/DVD drives, hard drives and scanners will
all benefit from the added bandwidth and performance gains
of the new implementation of the USB standard. Hi-Speed USB
2.0 provides the necessary fast data transfer rates that today’s
devices require, and combines the earlier specifications so older
devices that operated under the original USB standards will still
work with Hi-Speed USB 2.0.
Will USB 1.0 Devices Run Faster When Connected
To A Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Bus?
Unfortunately, no. USB devices will still operate at 12Mb/s at
full-speed and 1.5Mb/s at low-speed on a Hi-Speed USB 2.0
bus. Even though USB 1.0 devices won’t run any faster, they
can work alongside Hi-Speed USB 2.0 devices on the same bus.
However, if you plug in a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 device to a USB 1.0
bus, the speed of the Hi-Speed USB 2.0 device will decrease
to 12Mb/s.
What Is A USB Hub?
Technically, you can connect up to 127 devices to a single USB
bus. For more than two devices, though, you must make new
connections using a peripheral called a “hub.” A hub, which you
hook up directly to a USB connector on your computer, usually
has 4 or 7 output connections enabling you to connect the same
number of peripherals. Some hubs have no power supply and
others are self-powered. When you choose a hub, opt for the
self-powered variety, as they have their own AC adapter. The
most powerful hubs provide 0.5A of power to each port.
Will Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Devices Work On USB 1.1
Hubs And Vice Versa?
You can use your Hi-Speed USB 2.0 devices with USB 1.1 hubs,
but the peripherals will be limited to USB 1.1 performance levels.
Hi-Speed USB 2.0 is backwards compatible, so you will be able
to connect USB devices to Hi-Speed USB 2.0 hubs; however, the
USB devices will still maintain their normal performance levels
(i.e. 12 Mb/s).
In order to achieve the fast data transfer rates of Hi-Speed USB
2.0, you must connect your Hi-Speed USB 2.0 device directly to
a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port on either a computer or hub.

4. USB 2.0 Questions & Answers

LaCie USB 2.0 / FireWire 400 & 800 PCI Card • DESIGN BY SISMO FireWire Q & A
User Manual page 11
What Does IEEE 1394 Mean?
IEEE (the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) refers to
the engineering corps that developed the 1394th standard, de-
fining the high-performance serial input/output (I/O) bus used to
connect peripheral devices. There are now two standards: IEEE
1394a, which refers to the original standard adopted in 1995,
and IEEE 1394b, which refers to the new standard, adopted in
2002.
What Is The Relationship Between IEEE 1394,
FireWire, iLink And DV?
These four names all refer to the same interface:
✦IEEE 1394 is the term commonly used in the computer in-
dustry.
✦FireWire is the brand name used by Apple.
✦iLink is the brand name used by Sony for both consumer
electronics and personal computers.
✦DV is short for “Digital Video,” and is used as the logo for
the interface on most video camcorders.
What Are The Benefits Of The FireWire Interfaces?
The FireWire interface is a fast, cross-platform serial bus, and is
ideal for digital audio, video and graphic applications that de-
mand plenty of bandwidth. Both versions of FireWire offer Plug &
Play connectivity, so all you have to do is plug in your drive and
begin using it, they also allow up to 63 devices to be connected
via a single bus and offer peer-to-peer connectivity, enabling
multiple computers and FireWire devices to be connected at the
same time. FireWire also supports both isochronous and asyn-
chronous capabilities, meaning that it can guarantee real-time
data delivery, so there is no danger of inaccurately ordered or
delayed frames.
What Is The Difference Between FireWire 400 And
FireWire 800?
Essentially, the main difference between the two interfaces can
be summed up in one word: speed. FireWire 800 effectively
doubles the bandwidth of the original FireWire 400 interface.
The new FireWire 800 interface offers truly impressive results,
with speeds up to 800Mb/s for a single bus, and even greater
for several buses in RAID0 configurations.
Other key advancements include the support of increased ca-
bling distances and a newly enhanced arbitration architecture.
Utilizing cables constructed of professional-grade glass optical
fiber, when both devices are connected via a FireWire 800 hub,
FireWire 800 can burst data across 100 meters of cable.
The new arbitration scheme greatly improves on the existing
architecture by incorporating advanced 8B10B data encoding
(based on codes used by Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel),
which reduces signal distortion, and also improves the arbi-
tration time by prepping the arbitration while the current data
packet is being sent, so that data is sent as soon as the current
transmission is completed.
What Are The Ideal Uses For FireWire?
FireWire helped fuel a revolution for digital content creators,
and was awarded a 2001 Primetime Emmy Engineering Award
by the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences for its contribution.
Due to its high bandwidth and support of both isochronous and
asynchronous data delivery, FireWire has found a very successful
place in both the computer and consumer electronics industries.
Whether connecting game consoles, personal video recorders,
home stereo equipment, digital TVs, hard drives, CD/DVD-RW
drives, printers, scanners, tape drives or other digital hardware
equipment, FireWire is well-suited to handle all these various
requirements.
With the advent of the new FireWire 800 standard, the revolu-
tion created by the original will only grow. For those working
with digital video, the new standard will enable new bandwidth-
intensive applications, such as multiple-stream, uncompressed,
standard-definition video.
Will FireWire 400 Devices Run Faster When Con-
nected To A FireWire 800 Port?
Unfortunately, this is not the case. In order to attain FireWire
800 speeds, both the device and port have to be FireWire 800
enabled. For instance, an external hard drive with a FireWire
800 9-pin connection will only reach FireWire 800 transfer rates
when it is connected to a FireWire 800 9-pin host bus adapter
card via a properly certified FireWire 800 9-pin to 9-pin beta
cable.
When a FireWire 400 device is connected to a FireWire 800
port, the FireWire 400 device will only operate at the original
FireWire 400 speeds.
5. FireWire Questions & Answers

LaCie USB 2.0 / FireWire 400 & 800 PCI Card • DESIGN BY SISMO FireWire Q & A
User Manual page 12
Will FireWire 800 Devices Work On FireWire 400
Ports And Vice Versa?
The new standard was designed to be backwards compatible,
meaning that FireWire 800 devices will still operate via the origi-
nal FireWire 400 port. To connect a FireWire 800 device to
a FireWire 400 port, a specific adapter cable must be used,
though. There are two types of FireWire 400 ports: 6-pin and
4-pin. For FireWire 800 devices to work, they must be connected
by placing the 9-pin end of the FireWire cable into the FireWire
800 port of the device, and the opposite 6-pin or 4-pin end into
the FireWire 400 port.
The same holds true for FireWire 400 devices being connected
to a FireWire 800 host port. The 4-pin or 6- pin end of the
FireWire cable must be connected to the FireWire 400 port of
the device, and the 9-pin end must be connected to the FireWire
800 port.
When FireWire 400 and FireWire 800 devices are mixed, all
transfer rates revert to the original FireWire 400 speed.
