  Brent HenryAug 8, 2025
  If your LaCie storage drive isn't showing up on your computer, you should find an icon and drive letter for it in My Computer. If it's not there, check the connection cables (FireWire, eSATA, or USB) at both ends to ensure they are fully seated. Try disconnecting and reconnecting them after 10 seconds. Restarting your computer might also help. Also, if the LaCie Little Big Disk Quadra is connected via USB or eSATA, ensure the power supply is correctly connected and the outlet is switched on.

  Heidi WilsonAug 19, 2025
  If your LaCie storage drive isn't running faster via Hi-Speed USB 2.0, it's normal if the drive is connected to a standard USB port or hub. For Hi-Speed USB 2.0 performance, connect the drive directly to a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port or hub. Also, verify that the Hi-Speed USB 2.0 drivers for both your host bus adapter and device are correctly installed; reinstall them if needed.

What to do if I get error messages under Mac OS 10.x. with LaCie Little Big Disk Quadra Storage?
- R
  Rachel EvansAug 25, 2025
  If you encounter error messages when copying files or folders from Mac OS 10.x to a FAT32 volume on your LaCie storage drive, it's because certain characters (? < > / \ :) are not compatible. Ensure your files and folders do not contain these characters. Also, you can ignore the error message if you get it after waking your computer from sleep mode. LaCie drives conserve power by spinning down when the computer sleeps, and sometimes the drive needs more time to spin back up.

  It is normal for your LaCie storage drive to turn on and off with your computer when using USB and FireWire connections. The drive has an autoswitching power feature, so it powers on when the computer turns on and off when the computer turns off. To power off the drive while it's connected, ensure the computer isn't accessing the drive.
