Convert LaCie d2 Thunderbolt 2 to External Hybrid Storage

 

• Boost LaCie d2 Thunderbolt 2 speeds up to 1150 MB/s
• Add 128 GB of SSD capacity
• SSD speed, hard drive capacity in a single enclosure

 

Overview

 

Install the LaCie d2 SSD Upgrade on the LaCie d2 Thunderbolt 2 (sold separately) to multiply speeds by a factor of five, with zero compromise in capacity. At up to 1150 MB/s, the LaCie d2 with the d2 SSD Upgrade delivers speeds that exceed the performance of even the internal SSD on your late-model PC or Mac computer in a single-disk enclosure.

Simply remove the rear panel on the LaCie d2 Thunderbolt 2 to install the upgrade, and instantly you have an additional 128 GB of SSD storage. Two separate drives mount on the computer: one for the SSD, and one for the hard disk. Use the SSD for bandwidth-intensive tasks such as fast file transfers, audio mixing, video editing, or OS booting, and use the hard disk for file archiving. No other solution offers this level of performance and capacity in such a compact footprint.

Actual data rates may vary depending on operating environment and other factors.  When referring to drive capacity, one gigabyte, or GB, equals one billion bytes and one terabyte, or TB, equals one thousand billion bytes. Your computers operating system may use a different standard of measurement and report a lower capacity. In addition, some of the listed capacity is used for formatting and other functions and will not be available for data storage.  Thunderbolt and the Thunderbolt logo are trademarks of Intel Corporation in the U.S. and/or other countries.
