Backing Up Hdd Data To A Pc - Panasonic SC-PTX7 Operating Instructions Manual

Backing up HDD data to a PC

We recommend backing up the tracks on the HDD regularly using a PC or NAS (Network Attached Storage). In the event that this
unit requires service and the music data is damaged or lost, you can restore music from the last time you backed up.
The necessary equipment and recommended operating system for creating a backup:
≥A PC operating with Windows XP SP2 installed
≥A hard disk drive (HDD) with adequate available space, or a NAS device. Other media (DVD-R, etc.) cannot be used for
creating a backup of your music library.
≥When creating a backup, we recommend using a fast network connection such as 100BASE-T LAN.
≥For further information about backups visit the following homepage.
