4.9. Dashboard: Drive Information

This page shows you information about disk usage and will allow

you to reformat your drive.

4.9.1. Formatting Your Network Space 2

When you click the top Format button (Fig. 63, a), ALL data on the

disk (including on USBShare) will be erased and the disk will be

formatted. Data on any USB hard drive connected to the front port

will not be affected. When you click the bottom Format button (Fig.

63, b), only the USBShare will be formatted.

To reformat:

1. Click the FORMAT button.

2. In the blue window that opens, conﬁrm by ﬂicking the FORMAT

button.

CAUTION: Formatting will erase all the data on your drive (but

will not remove users or settings). Make sure to back up all your

data onto another volume before proceeding. If you are formatting

USBShare and wish to back it up ﬁrst onto another share, LaCie rec-

ommends you use the File Browser (see 3.3. Accessing Shares Using

File Browser (Dashboard)) instead of using SMB/AFP (i.e. using the

Finder for Mac users or an Explorer window for Windows users).

LaCie cannot be held for responsible for the loss of data occurring

during formatting.
