Chapter 17 Using Hard Drives
Handling Song Copy Archives Disks
When you save songs using the Song Copy Archives
method, the destination disks are initialized
automatically. This initialization differs from the usual
Drive Initialize formatting (p. 217). Since disks are
initialized automatically, you can use the Song Copy
Archives procedure with newly purchased disks, disks
that were used with another device, or other
unformatted disks. However, any older data residing on
the disks is lost once the Archives procedure is
performed. Do not designate a disk that contains archive
song data as the current drive. If you try to do this, the
disk will be identified as an uninitialized disk.
Loading a Song from an External
Drive Using Song Copy Playable
To copy songs from an external drive into the internal drive,
first switch the current drive (the drive or partition in active
use) to the external drive's SCSI ID using Drive Select, as
described below. Then use Song Copy Playable to copy the
song from the external drive to the internal drive.
* If you copy a song from the external drive back to the internal
drive without first erasing the original song from the internal
drive, the original song is not overwritten. A new song is
created with the same name as the original and is written to
the lowest available song number.
