6.2.5 Hard drive menu
The hard drive menu allows you to alter all the settings involving the hard drive.
6.2.6 Spin down time
Hard drives are devices that spin round creating noise and heat and using
energy. If the FSG-3 is not used for a long time, it is more beneficial to spin down
the hard drive. This uses less power and creates less noise and heat. It also
prolongs the lifetime of the hard disk. After the disk has been spun down, the
first access will take longer, since the hard disk will have to start spinning again.
You can set the time it takes for the hard drive to spin down after last use. If you
do not want the disk to spin down, please set this to 0.
After setting the time, please press Apply.
6.2.7 Hard disk format
If you wish to format the internal FSG-3 hard disk, read the warnings carefully
first. All data will be lost after formatting! After you have read the warnings,
please re-affirm you wish to format the drive by selecting the appropriate radio
button and press the Format Hard drive button.
Attention: Pressing the button below will destroy all data on the
hard drive! Please make a backup first!
Attention: Please remove all USB Mass Storage devices before
formatting the drive! Otherwise all attached USB mass storage
devices will be formatted as well.
Attention: Prevent all device activity during formatting!
