Cary Audio Design MS-1 - Manual (Page 16)

OPERATION
HARD DRIVE DISK SPACE
The MS-1 comes with a 1 TB hard drive and is partitioned into two separate spaces. One is for
the operating system and the other for music storage. The music storage partition is
approximately 842 GB while the operating system partition is approximately
30 GB. The remaining few GB are the actual partitions themselves. In today’s memory and
storage based devices such as music servers, computers, Smartphone’s, etc., it is normal for the
actual available storage space for content to be somewhat less then overall specified capacity.
CHECKING AVAILABLE AND USED STORAGE SPACE
The MS-1 lets you check the available free and used space of the hard drive via the Cary
Audio Remote App for iPhone. Follow these steps to check the available space.
1. Open the Cary Audio Remote App.
2. Tap the “Settings” button in the upper left corner.
3. Scroll to the bottom of the Settings page.
4. Notice at the bottom it lists “Hard Drive Free” and “Hard Drive Used”
Note:
 Please take care in being aware of how much music you are copying or may be
transferring over to the MS-1 hard drive. Once the hard drive is filled to capacity it will no
longer copy music files. However, if you continue to attempt to load more music than it is
capable of storing, it may list those artists and tracks while not actually copying the music
files. Also be aware hi-res music files can be several times larger than FLAC or other file
formats, and can fill the hard drive more rapidly.
