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.
