SPECIAL NOTES ABOUT DVD-RAM
– Each side of a DVD-RAM disk is treated by the MX-2424 as
a separate disk.
– When an un-initialized DVD-RAM disk is used the MX-2424
will employ its Smart Backup system to span project(s)
across multiple disks.
– When a DVD-RAM disk is used that has been initialized on a
Mac it will be treated by the MX-2424 as another hard drive
and disk spanning will not be possible.
– When a backup set contains more than one DVD-RAM disk
the MX-2424 will prompt in the LCD to insert the
appropriate disk then press YES.

The estimated required monthly payment shown which excludes taxes and delivery equals the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next cent. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to this rounding. These payments apply only with the financing offer shown. If you make these payments by the due date each month, you should pay off this amount financed within the promo period, if it is the only balance you are paying off. If you have other balances on your account, this payment will be added to any other minimum monthly payments.
