LaCie Computers & Internet - Answered Questions & Fixed Issues
I need to know how to do a factory reset on a lacie 4Big Quadra enterprise.
- Disconnect all cables from the device.
- Press and hold the "reset" button (located on the rear panel) for about 10 seconds.
- Wait for the device to restart and initialize. This may take several minutes.
- Reconnect the cables to the device and try accessing it again.
Note: It's recommended to backup all data stored on the device before performing a factory reset, as all data will be lost during the reset process.
My LaCie external drive isn't getting power
U should test for power at the connector that goes into the lacie with a voltmeter to make sure power supply and its wire are OK. If no voltmeter then use a automobile brake or turn signal bulb to see if it has power.
My lacie external hd designed
the power circuit is most likely blown. You can buy an external hard drive case and put the hard drive in it. Be sure to buy correct size hard drive enclosure. The other way is to remove hard drive from external case and put into computer with a spare sata connection.
LaCie Case and new IDE drive not communicating with my MAC
It sounds like you have power but the communication method is not working. I assume it is a usb drive, (or it is firewire 400, firewire 800? How do you have it hooked up to the Mac? If you are using usb, I would try using a different usb cable. Same for firewire. You also might read your manual on the Lite-On drive is see if you have to throw some dip switch make it a master or slave setting on IDE.
Hallo, I have a LaCie Grand 1 TP external
Hi
you may face this issue because of differences between mac and windows file systems/partition table and security attributes that may disallow any further changes.
1-try to connect you HDD to a windows Computer and Backup all your files before loses any data(use more newer version of windows like windows 10 build 1709 windows XP is old/out of services and has many problems)
2-after a full backup in windows try to connect your HDD to your mac and format it via your MacBook
3- after formatting your HDD try to reconnect your HDD to windows and copy your files to HDD(windows has a compatible file systems that could read/allow/write mac file systems/partition and its attributes)
4-enjoy
best regard
