Confirming That a Drive is
Not Damaged (Drive Check)
You can check the drive you are using to make sure it
can be read correctly. This is referred to as Drive
Check.
This provides a way to determine whether a failure
during Song Copy (p. 102) or DAT Backup (p. 129) is
due to a problem in the song itself that was saved on
disk, whether the problem is with the connections, or
if there is a problem of some other kind.
If data cannot be read correctly, the display will indi-
cate the song in which the error occurred.
1. Press [SYSTEM] several times until "SYS Drive
Check ?" appears in the display.

proceed with the Drive Check appears in the dis-
play. Press [YES].
