Creating tracks

When two or more hard disks are installed, each hard disk is equivalent to
one partition. In OEM state, a single track (track 1) is assigned to all partitions
(hard disks).

If you would like to record only on one track, the following settings
for creating tracks are not necessary.

Attention
All previously recorded pictures will be automatically erased if a
track is reassigned or if several tracks are configured.
