Before disconnecting the external hard drive
Before turning off or physically disconnecting the external hard drive,
be sure to safely end the connection to the camcorder to avoid dam-
age to your files. From the [External Hard Drive] screen:
[Safely Remove Hard Drive]
IMPORTANT
• Make sure you power the camcorder with the compact power adapter
before you save a memory to the external hard drive. If the compact
power adapter becomes disconnected, the connection between the
camcorder and the hard drive will end, which may lead to the corruption
of data in the hard drive.
• Observe the following precautions while the ACCESS indicator is on or
flashing. Failing to do so may result in permanent data loss.
- Do not open the memory card slot cover.
- Do not disconnect the USB cable.
NOTES
• You cannot select both the built-in memory and memory card to save
them simultaneously.
• If you performed multiple memory save operations on the same day (for
example, if you saved the built-in memory and then a memory card), the
folder name of memory save folders following the first one will end in a
numerical suffix (for example, "-1", "-2").
• Up to 10 memory save folders can be created for any given date and up
to 300 memory save folders can be saved on a single hard drive.
• If the external hard drive is partitioned, only the first partition will be rec-
ognized.
• You cannot use the following types of external hard drives. For the latest
information on devices that can be used, please visit your local Canon
Web site.
- USB-powered portable hard drives.
- Hard drives with a capacity over 2 TB.
- USB flash drives or media connected to card readers.
