3.4.2 Making copies from an existing hard drive partition (hard drive models only)

Using the hard drive as the master copy source is the best way to make copies. Since you won’t need to

occupy the Reader drive with a master disc, you will have one additional drive to use for burning copies.

Using the hard disc as the master copy source improves:

• Performance - Copying from the hard drive enables the writer drives to boost the copying performance

to the limit.

• Stability - Copying from the hard drive allows a more stable duplication process than disc-to-disc

duplication.

• Durability – The hard drive is a more durable storage device than recordable discs. The recording

surface of a recordable disc is exposed and can easily be scratched, potentially corrupting data. The

hard drive is shielded and mounted inside the unit, protecting it from incidental damage.

• Convenience – With your master copy sources stored inside the hard drive, you have convenient

access to each one. There is no need to search for a master disc every time you want to make a copy;

they are all stored inside the system.

Before you can make copies from an existing hard drive partition, make sure you have loaded an image of

the Master disc onto the hard disk drive (see section “3.16.2 Load Partition” on page 54) and that the

hard disk drive is selected as your source drive (see section “3.10 Select Source” on page 30).
