How to use
Connect the LaCie d2 Professional to your computer using the included USB Type-C cable. The drive is recognized by both Mac and PC; no additional hardware is required for basic use. For first-time setup, format the drive if you need a specific file system (for example APFS or HFS+ for macOS workflows, or NTFS/exFAT for Windows compatibility). Transfer files directly or configure your editing software to use the drive as a scratch, cache, or storage volume.
Usage recommendations
Use the drive on a stable, level surface and ensure proper ventilation during sustained transfers. For cross-platform workflows, choose an appropriate filesystem (exFAT for read/write on both macOS and Windows). Regularly back up important data and use the drive for large media files, project archives, or as a high-capacity working volume rather than as the primary system disk.
