CAUTION: Following these steps will erase everything from the

4big, including encrypted data. If you have information that you

want to protect or continue to use, back up this information before

performing these steps.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Formatting will not erase the encryption con-

ﬁguration. If you wish to format a 4big that has been encrypted, you

will ﬁrst need to unlock the device using the LaCie Desktop Man-

ager, then follow the steps below.

3.4.2. Windows Users

The process of formatting a drive on a computer running Windows

XP or Windows Vista consists of two steps: (1) installing a signature

on the drive, and (2) formatting the drive. These steps will erase

anything that is on the disk.

TECHNICAL NOTE:

Windows XP 32-bit: These operating systems will not recognize vol-

umes greater than 2TB in size.

Windows XP x64, Windows Vista (32- and 64-bit versions), and Win-

dows 7 (32- and 64-bit versions): These operating systems will recog-

nize volumes greater than 2TB in size, but the disks must be converted

to the GPT ﬁle system before partitions greater than 2TB can be cre-

ated.

the interface port.

agement (located below the Storage group). See Fig. 17
