STEP 2: Connecting the USB cable

1. Attach one end of the USB cable to an available USB 2.0 port
on your computer (Fig. 33).
2. Connect the other end of the USB cable to the USB port (type B;
see Fig. 33) on the back of the Network Space MAX.
3. Once the LED stops blinking, the hard disk will mount on your
computer and appear in My Computer/Computer (Windows us-
ers) or on your desktop (Mac users).
4. Transfer files from your computer as you would with any desktop
storage; drag and drop, copy and paste, etc.
The Network Space MAX USBShare is formatted in MS-DOS (FAT32)
for use with PCs and Macs. You can reformat the drive in MS-DOS
(FAT32) using the Dashboard (see
tion for details). To format the USBShare into a different file format
(NTFS or HFS+), use your operating system's disk management ap-
plication.

See Fig. 34 for an illustration of the Hi-Speed USB 2.0 cable used
to connect your LaCie Network Space MAX to your computer. The
