About the SSD
The SSD (Solid State Disk) is a non-volatile memory, whose
content is preserved even after turning the instrument off. It is
divided in the following separate areas:
SSD area
Factory PCM
User PCM
System Area (SSD-S)
User Area (SSD-U)
SSD and the internal RAM memory
After turning the instrument on, all data contained in the System
area of the SSD (Factory and User data) are transferred to a
RAM memory. This memory is volatile, and will be deleted
when turning the instrument off.
Before turning the instrument off, please remember to save any
new or modified data, like Songs or Samples.

You can deselect all items in any of the following ways:
