CD and DVD Software Preparing to Use Easy CD Creator Ä CAUTION: To prevent loss of work and damage to an optical drive medium: ■ Connect the notebook to a reliable external power source before writing to a medium. Power loss, for example from a failing battery pack, could corrupt the write process. ■ Before writing to a medium, close all open applications (including screen savers and antivirus software) except Easy CD Creator Basic. ■ Do not copy directly from a medium to another medium or from a network drive to a medium. Instead, copy from a medium or a network drive to your hard drive, then copy from your hard drive the medium. ■ Do not type on the notebook keyboard or move the notebook while the notebook is writing to a medium. The write process is sensitive to vibration. Selecting Drive Locations If you plan to use an optional port replicator during a copying procedure: ■ Insert the source drive (the drive that is to be copied from) into the port replicator MultiBay. ■ Insert the destination drive (the drive that is to be copied to) into the notebook MultiBay. ■ Do not copy directly from the source drive to the destination drive. Instead, copy from the source drive to your hard drive. Then copy from your hard drive to the destination drive. If you plan to use a network drive during a copying procedure: ■ If you are using only 1 optical drive, insert the drive into the notebook MultiBay. ■ Do not copy directly between the network drive and the optical drive. Instead, copy from the network to your hard drive, then from your hard drive to the optical drive. Or, copy from the optical drive to your hard drive, then from your hard drive to the network drive.

Preparing to Use Easy CD Creator
Ä
CAUTION:
To prevent loss of work and damage to an optical drive
medium:
Connect the notebook to a reliable external power source
before writing to a medium. Power loss, for example from a
failing battery pack, could corrupt the write process.
Before writing to a medium, close all open applications
(including screen savers and antivirus software) except Easy
CD Creator Basic.
Do not copy directly from a medium to another medium or from
a network drive to a medium. Instead, copy from a medium or a
network drive to your hard drive, then copy from your hard drive
the medium.
Do not type on the notebook keyboard or move the notebook
while the notebook is writing to a medium. The write process is
sensitive to vibration.
Selecting Drive Locations
If you plan to use an optional port replicator during a copying
procedure:
Insert the source drive (the drive that is to be copied
from
)
into the port replicator MultiBay.
Insert the destination drive (the drive that is to be copied
to
)
into the notebook MultiBay.
Do not copy directly from the source drive to the destination
drive. Instead, copy from the source drive to your hard drive.
Then copy from your hard drive to the destination drive.
If you plan to use a network drive during a copying procedure:
If you are using only 1 optical drive, insert the drive into the
notebook MultiBay.
Do not copy directly between the network drive and the
optical drive. Instead, copy from the network to your hard
drive, then from your hard drive to the optical drive. Or, copy
from the optical drive to your hard drive, then from your hard
drive to the network drive.
