interface and Data transfer information
A data transfer is the flow of data that accomplishes
a task, usually related to moving data from storage to
computer RAM or between storage devices. During
data transfers, it’s best to wait before launching other
applications on the same USB 2.0 port. Anomalies may
arise with computers that have USB 2.0 controllers that
do not conform to OHCI (Open Host Controller In-
terface) standards. In any other configurations, we can-
not ensure 100% correct operation.
If you experience hanging problems, proceed as fol-
lows:
Make sure that the USB cable is connected tightly
and securely, from the drive to the computer.
Disconnect the USB cable. Wait 30 seconds. Recon-
nect.

CAUTION:
Do not connect USB cables so that
they form a ring of devices. There is no need for
terminators on USB or devices, so the unused USB
connectors should be left empty.

Controller
- A control-
ler is a component or an electronic card (referred
to in this case as a “controller card”) that enables a
computer to communicate with or manage certain
peripherals. An external controller is an expansion
card which fills one of the free slots (i.e. PCI or
PCMCIA) inside your PC and which enables a pe-
ripheral (ex. CD-R/RW drive, scanner or printer)
to be connected to the computer. If your computer
is not equipped with a USB controller card, you
can purchase an external controller through LaCie.
