Ideal for IT Network Administrators  
With its intuitive web interface, administration is easy, convenient  
and secure. Thanks to the 5big Network’s DHCP and Apipa  
support, network configuration is fast and automatic. It’s easy to  
control data access by assigning various security levels to shares,  
groups, user profiles, and public access, and with Windows ADS  
domain support, there’s no need to recreate user and group  
accounts. End users do not need to create new passwords and  
usernames, making the 5big Network as convenient as it is  
safe. The 5big Network also provides its administrator with  
notifications via email of events like backup, RAID construction,  
and downloads, as well as high temperate, disk damage, and  
fan damage alerts.

Quiet and Reliable Operation  
For the best and most reliable cooling system for the 5big Network,  
LaCie has chosen the Noctua and the NF-P12 fan technology,  
designed in Austria, and automatically thermoregulated by SMART  
commands. The nine-blade design and the vortex-control notches  
of the blower provide superior pressure and airflow performance,  
all at a volume fewer than 19dBA. The best-in-its-class Noctua is  
rated at 150,000 hours MTBF, and its ultra-quiet design makes it  
perfect for even the most noise-sensitive creative environment. This  
attention to detail allows the 5big Network to be from 15% (seek) to  
37% (idle) quieter than traditional 4-disk systems.  
ULTRA QUIET  
Power Savings  
Traditional RAID systems can consume a lot of power, but the 5big  
Network is different. LaCie has reduced power consumption of  
this 5-disk solution by 25% compared to the previous 4-disk RAID  
generations. Moreover, with the “Auto” mode of the triple position  
power button, the 5big is able to go into standby reducing the  
power consumption by up to 75%. Thanks to the Wake-on-LAN  
feature, the 5big Network can be switched back to operating mode  
from the client side.  
Superior Design  
Designed by world-famous industrial designer Neil Poulton, the  
professional aluminum 5big Network tower is robust and reliable  
with a strong metal enclosure and five lockable drive trays that  
can be inserted and removed.** Red and blue LED indicators  
identify each disk, and the glowing blue button adds more than  
just character—one push will back up an attached external hard  
disk, USB key or digital camera to the 5big Network. In addition,  
the 5big Network has been developed to be stackable and  
enhance any work environment with its space-saving abilities.  
Easy to Use  
For a unique user experience, the 5big Network includes the  
LaCie Network Assistant software for Windows, Mac, and Linux  
to be installed at the client side, and its intuitive and appealing  
design increase both functionality and usability. With this  
agent, users have quick access to the shares created in the 5big  
Network, and can see all the LaCie NAS products in the network.

EN 1TB (Terabyte) = 1000GB. 1GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes. Total accessible capacity varies depending upon  
operating environment (typically 10–15% less).  
Capacity also varies depending upon RAID modes. In RAID 5/5+Spare/6, the capacity varies according to the  
number of disks (more capacity with 5 disks).  
 Calculations are based on 5MB office presentations, an average digital SLR of 8 megapixels for RAW photos,  
and 800MB/1-hour of video (encoded in MPEG-4 or equivalent codec).  
 Tests performed using Intel NASPT tool in SMB file systems in RAID 0 configuration.  
PC used: Core2 Duo 2 Ghz /1 GB RAM / Network card RealTek /Crossed cable / Vista Professional.  
Performance depends on the RAID mode selected, file system used, and may vary from one drive to another.  
 These measurements are indications and may vary by +/- 10%.  
This measurement has been made under normal conditions, one meter from the front of the product. It may  
vary with the condition and product configuration.
