■ Ejecting a JAZ disk

1. Press the eject button on the JAZ drive.

The access indicator flashes for a while, then the JAZ disk is ejected about 2 cm beyond the slot.

2. Remove the disk carefully.

Insert the disk in the case that came with the disk, and store it in a safe place.

CAUTION :

Never force a JAZ disk in or out of its slot. Doing so may damage not only the disk but the

JAZ drive.

➸

NOTE :

If you need to eject a JAZ disk while the power to the DPS12 is turned off, insert and gently

push a thin wire or a straightened paper clip into the eject hole of the JAZ drive to eject the disk. Akai is

not responsible for damage to the JAZ disk or loss of data caused by a forced eject operation.

Notes on using a JAZ drive

• To be able to use a JAZ disk on the DPS12, you need to format a disk first. (Refer to page 22, 106 for informa-

tion on how to format a disk.)

• Make sure that the power to the DPS12 is turned on when you insert or eject a JAZ disk. If you turn on or off

the power to the DPS12 while a JAZ disk is inside the drive, the disk may be damaged and data may be lost.

• The JAZ drive automatically enters sleep mode (disk spinning is stopped) if it is not accessed for about 30

minutes. Therefore, it may take a while to exit sleep mode if you start playing back or recording after a period

of time. This is not a malfunction.

• After you eject a JAZ disk from the drive, always store the disk in its protective case.

• Do not open, apply any force, or drop liquid on the shutter of a JAZ disk. Otherwise, the disk may be damaged

and data may be lost.

• When the access indicator (an LED on the front panel) of the JAZ drive is lit, do not move the DPS12. Remove

the JAZ disk before moving the DPS12.

• The eject button is disabled while the DPS12 accesses data on the disk (such as while recording or playing).

• Do not open the dust door of the JAZ drive slot manually. Do not insert anything other than a JAZ disk into the

disk slot. Otherwise, dust may enter the drive or the JAZ drive may be damaged.

• If a JAZ disk is damaged for some reason, its data will be lost forever. We recommend that important data be

backed up to an external hard disk or an MO drive. (Refer to page 99 for information on backing up data.)
