ABOUT THE QUICK DISK
The Quick Disk is a storage medium in the form of a film whose surface is coated with a magnetic substance. Since
this magnetic surface is extremely delicate, great care should be taken when handling Quick Disks.
Format
* When
purchasing new disks, ask for 2.8 inch Quick Disks. (We recommend
Yamaha QD2.)
* AQuick Disk has two sides, A and B, both of which can be used for data storage.
* When inserting a disk, be sure the side you wish to use is facing upward. (See
page 2)
* Using the MDF1, up to 59.9 kilobytes (19 files) per side can be stored.
Handling Quick Disks
| * Do not touch the magnetic surface (internal part of the disk) or let it come into
direct contact with smoke or sprays. If the internal magnetic surface becomes
soiled or damaged, the disk may become unusable. Please also avoid dust.
* Do not place or use disks near television sets, radios, loudspeakers or any other
electric equipment which generates strong magnetic fields that may destroy
recorded data.
* Make sure the disks are not bent when storing them. Keep them in a box or similar
container and avoid direct sunlight and heat.
Protection
of Stored
Breaking out one of the erasure protection tabs of a disk makes it impossible to

record on one side of that disk, thus protecting valuable data from accidental erasure.
Since there are separate tabs for sides A and B, simply break out the tab for the
side you want to protect.

Should you wish to record again on a side whose tab has been broken out, simply
apply adhesive tape so as to cover the tab hole.
