During the format operation, [REMAIN] lights up on the

drive that was shown before the unit entered Setup mode.
To eject the disk from the backup drive, press the EJECT
button on the drive.
Optimizing the disk
If you are using a disk that was formatted with the Multiple Undo function turned on, free disk space becomes
smaller quickly because the disk always keeps the Multiple Undo files. Optimizing such a disk (using the [Disk
Optimize?] menu in Setup mode) will increase free block space.
<Note>
After you record multiple takes, if you optimize the disk (with the Multiple Undo function turned on), you will
be able to undo only the most recent take. Therefore, if you wish to keep some takes, perform the Multiple
Undo function or use the Program duplicate function to restore the take, then optimize the disk. For more
information, see “Multiple Undo Function” on page
64
.
