Just need a confirmation, is this drive daisy chain-able with my other LaCie's?

Yes, at least mine were using Firewire. This one also has Firewire and a USB 3.0 port, while earlier models do not. That worked out great for connecting USB 3.0 to a new 5k iMac, which is faster than FW anyway; but my older ones cannot as the 5k iMac has no Firewire port.

hmm...it depends on how you will figure out your chain-able and how old are you other devices.

Yes, the drive has two FireWire 800 ports that can be used to daisy chain to other drives.

No, you cannot daisy chain USB. In addition if you can avoid it do not put a hard drive on a USB hub as you will degrade the performance. Always attach a hard drive directly to your computer. To other "answers:" If you don't know, please don't answer. If your "answer" contains "I don't know but..." then just delete your "answer." Would you want someone giving you a random guess when you ask a pre-purchase question? Don't guess at a question you don't know and don't provide information you don't know to be true. It's not helpful. Again, would you want someone to give you an opinion when you're looking for facts?

I went through a couple of these that never worked out of the box, so if you are going to try it, stick to the specs. I returned 2 of them and switched to the Buffalo LinkStation LS-WVL/E and it has been working great with two 3TB drives.

I've never daisy chained using two different connections, but I don't think that would be a problem. The drive does daisy chain, yes. I've daisy chained several G-Technology drives using the FW800.

I use my LaCie drive for watching DVD's & CD's installing software and making DVD's & CD's therefore I'm sure that the answere to your question is "Yes"

Yes, it is. The LaCie 3 TB Porsche hard drive is fabulous! Set your time for any time (mine is for 3 am) to do the Time Machine backup and voila! It is done! Good luck.Jude Hibler - Jazz Link Enterprises

I suggest that you download the manual from here https://www.lacie.com/download/manual/UM_2big_USB_3_0_EN.pdf since it contains all the information that you will need to do this.

I have 4 Western Digital Red 3TB drives in mine. It has been running non-stop since I bought it. The best investment I've made in computer hardware in long time. Segate and Western digital will both work in it. Not sure if differnt size drives will work though.

I'm able to daisy chain a second firewire drive (not another My Passport) to my Macbook Pro, and both drives work fine.

I've tested connecting a LaCie drive to the dock with USB3 and FW, and I get roughly the same transfer rate for either interface. I haven't tried simultaneous transfers on multiple drives, though.

I bought this one for my Western Digital Drive ...you'll need to check with Iomega

I don't know your Poweredge, but it looks like your existing drive is a SATA drive, so I would have thought it would be OK. Whatever OS and drive controller you are using would be of more concern. Might be worth emailing WD support asking them.

No. It has only one Thunderbolt port, so it can be part of a daisy chain, but needs to be the last device on the chain
