partition holds ONE and ONLY ONE master disc s content regardless of the size of your master disc.
The options for partition size are:
Auto
CD: 1 GB
DVD Single Layer: 5 GB
DVD Dual/Double Layer: 9 GB
The number of partitions is determined by dividing your Hard Drive's total capacity by the selected media
size: 1 GB for CD format, 5 GB for DVD5 format, or 9 GB for DVD9 format (double layer/dual layer), and
then subtracting one partition for system use. For example, if you have a 160 GB Hard Drive, you can
calculate the number of DVD5 format partitions by: 160 / 5 = 32. Since one partition is reserved for system
use, you will have 31 partitions available for use.
Or you can calculate the number of DVD9 format partitions using the formula: 160 / 9 = 17.77. Since you
cannot use an incomplete partition, there will be a total of 17 partitions available for a 160 GB Hard Drive.
Since one partition is reserved for system use; there will be 16 partitions available for use.
The Auto option sets the partition to the largest size that the installed CD/ DVD writers can accommodate.
If you have a 16x speed or higher autoloader with double layer/dual layer DVD9 capabilities, the hard drive
partitions are set at a size of 9 GB each under Auto option to accommodate the expanded size of the DVD9
format. If you require more partitions and do not plan on copying double layer/dual layer DVD9 media, you
can change the hard drive partition size to CD (1 GB) or DVD (5 GB).
