DISK MANAGEMENT
NOTE: This is the same as selecting the ALL PROJECTS or ALL LIBRARIES or ALL
PROJS&LIBS option in the SCSI BACKUP TYPE field. However, whilst this may seem like an
unnecessary duplication of a function, it might be useful if you want to backup all projects
except one or two - i.e. press SHIFT and DATA + and then use DATA - to de-select those few
files which you do not wish to backup. On a busy disk with many projects/libraries to backup,
this may be more convenient than individually ‘marking’ every file you want to backup.
Files selected by mistake can be de-selected using the DATA - key. For example, moving the
cursor back to SCENE 6 on this example and pressing the DATA - key would de-select it:
At the point you press DATA -, you will see the number of files selected decreases by one (in this
case, only 5 files are now selected).
Once you have selected the file(s) you want to backup, press EXIT to return to the main SCSI
BACKUP page and proceed with the backup.
BACKING UP ALL PROJECTS AND/OR LIBRARIES
If you have selected ALL PROJECTS, ALL LIBRARIES or ALL PROJS & LIBS, all you need to do
is press the flashing EXECUTE key. All the projects and/or libraries on the disk selected in the
FROM DISK field will be backed up. If any projects and/or libraries use audio from any other
connected disks, these too will be backed up to the destination SCSI tape.
The exact amount of time the backup will take depends on the amount of material being backed
up. Backup speed is approximately five times real-time (i.e. ten minutes of audio will take
approximately 2 minutes to backup).
BACKING UP AN ENTIRE DISK
As well as selectively backing up chosen files or backing up all projects and/or libraries, you may
also make a duplication of the disk by selecting ENTIRE DISK in the BACKUP TYPE field.
NOTE: Although ENTIRE DISK may seem the same as ALL PROJS & LIBS, there is a difference.
ALL PROJS & LIBS will backup everything from the selected disk but it will also backup any
audio from other disks that are used in the projects and/or libraries being backed up. ENTIRE
DISK, on the other hand, only backs up the audio on the selected disk, not any audio referenced
on other disks. ALL PROJS & LIBS, therefore, is more suitable for backing up your work whilst
ENTIRE DISK is a better selection to make if you just want to make a safety copy of a disk.
