About Your Hard Disk Drive
To improve the performance of Sony audio and video software applications, the hard disk drive on your computer has been
formatted with two partitions, drives C and D. Some Sony software applications save files to the drive D partition. This
prevents large video captures from consuming the available space on your drive C partition.
To maintain optimum system performance, you should defragment your system regularly.
Defragmenting your hard disk drive
If you encounter frame dropping while recording digital video onto your hard disk drive, defragmentation may be
necessary.
1.
Deactivate your screen saver and close other open applications, if applicable.
2.
Click Start in the Windows taskbar and select All Programs.
3. Point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then select Disk Defragmenter.
The Disk Defragment dialog box appears.
4.
Select Action from the menu bar and click Analyze.
It may take a long time to complete the defragmentation process, depending on the data capacity and current
utilization of your computer's hard disk drive(s).
