It is best to have your OS on a separate partition than the rest of your data. This results in less fragmentation and ensures speedy operation of your system. If your hard drive is large enough, then partitioning is probably a good idea for you. Common practice is to have at least three partitions: one ~8GB for the OS, one ~10GB for Documents and other personal files, and whatever is left for programs.

While you don't need a hard drive in the unit, you might want to consider adding one. Here are some advantages of using a hard drive: Safe storage of the master. You burn the master to the hard drive, and then you use the image on the hard drive to burn the copies. The duplicator will run faster and more efficiently, especially if you are making many copies. Without a hard drive, with each burn the duplicator has to read the master before burning the copies.

Your computer has a disk larger than 512 MB. This version of Windows includes improved support for large disks, resulting in more efficient use of disk space on large drives, and allowing disks over 2 GB to be formatted as a single drive.

Hard drives are beneficial to ensure quality burns at higher speeds and to store data that you may need to recall at a later date. With a hard drive, you can store important data or data you make frequent duplications from and easily recall any time you need. Also, it ensures that you can duplicate at the true maximum speed with the best quality.

No. Computer hard drives and duplicator hard drives are two separate file systems, so they cannot communicate. The USB and Firewire connections' allow the computer to use the duplicator as a CD external burner. You can use either of those devices to store the data on a disc from a specified CD drive on the duplicator. Once you create that disc, you can use it as your master disc to load into the hard drive and make your duplications. No.

In this case, utility programs usage should be avoided, as they do not always provide satisfactory results. If its "As-Failed" condition, you can usually recover your data with the entire directory structure intact. However, NOT RUNNING UTILITY PROGRAMS IS CRITICAL. Do not install new programs or attempt to save data onto the affected drive; this could make the situation worst.

We always use the Linux program fdisk or sfdisk to partition a new hard drive - even for making DOS FAT32 partitions or HPFS/NTFS partitions. The scheme we use depends entirely upon how large the hard drive is, what OS(s) we are installing, how you intend to use the machine, and of course your preferences. After reviewing the hardware in your order, we will make a recommendation allowing for smooth upgrades in the future (keeping your personal files and non-OS software in place).

No. Installing the hard drive requires special wiring and pre-configuration procedures which can be only done by our certified technicians. Any attempts to alter the machine on your own or through a non-authorized service technician will nullify the warranty.

The CD+G formatted discs is a very unique format. Unlike standard CD's, CD+G takes the images/graphics, (which are embedded within the audio track sub-channels), to allow the discs to show the song lyrics while playing the music. Standard CD-ROM or CD-RW drives will not be able to accurately detect those hidden images and distort your copies. In order to make an exact back-up copy of your produced CD+G disc, you need to make copies from a hard drive.

Where c0 is the controller number. t0 is the target (SCSI ID number) (omit for ATAPI/IDE) d0 is always 0 for SCSI, the drive # for ATAPI/IDE p0 is the partition; DOS is the first partition here /mnt is the mount point You can use the normal UNIX commands to copy files, 'cp', etc., after that to move the data. DOS filenames are in the old 8.3 format (lower case) for Solaris 2.5.1, in long filename format (lower case) for Solaris 2.

We will partition your hard drives however you want. Upon receiving your order, we will review the hardware and operating choices in your system and make a recommendation for your approval or modification. If you let us know how you intend to use your new LAC system in your response to our initial configuration approval request (sent by e-mail), we will work with you to determine an optimal partition scheme.

Yes. Right-click on an album name and choose "Export Album" to save your photos to the directory of your choice.

There are several software programs available that will "rip" or "extract" CD tracks to MP3 files. Bitrates between 128 kbits/s (near CD quality) to 192 kbits/s (CD quality) are generally recommended for most MP3 players. New PC's will usually include the CD player and MP3 recorder software. You can also find CD extractor software at www.poikosoft.com and www.musicmatch.com or at your local computer store.

We strongly recommend against resizing or formatting a hard drive partition that contains bad blocks, as this could lead to a total data loss on this partition. Acronis Disk Director Server does not allow you to resize hard drive partitions with bad blocks. We recommend that you create an image of this partition using Acronis True Image Server für Windows, reformat the hard disk so the bad blocks are recovered and then restore the created image resizing the partition.

If your system has more than one CD Rom drive, Evolution selects the first CD Rom drive found. The actual drive selected will depend on your hardware configuration. For example, if you have two CD Rom drives on one IDE controller, Evolution will rip from the drive configured as the Master.
