Data storage locations and folder names

Data copied to the internal hard disk of the unit is stored according to the
following rules.

Hints

• Each time data is copied, a new folder is created. The name of the folder is always the

creation date of the newest file copied from the media. For example, if the newest file
copied from the media was created 2005/03/01, the folder name becomes “20050301.001”.
If you copy other data with the same name as on the internal hard disk drive, the folder
name extension augments incrementally: “.002”, “.003”, etc.

• If a file has no date, it is saved in a folder named “19800000.001”.
