When a track is erased, although they can no longer be accessed, its sound files remain
on disk as unused files, taking up disk space, and reducing the time remaining for addi-
tional recording. To delete these unused files and recover the disk space, use the Opti-
mize function. See "Recovering Disk Space" on page 172 for more information.
