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).   

10.7 Format Hard Drive  

This function formats the Hard Drive. It deletes all disc images and re-initiates the Hard Drive. To format the 
Hard Drive, use the Up or Down button to navigate to the 7. Format Hard Drive menu:    

Press the Enter button to enter the Format Hard Drive menu.     

Press the Enter button to format the Hard Drive. After the Hard Drive has 
been formatted, the system will return you to the Format Hard Drive menu.    

11. Setup  

The 11.Setup menu options are used to configure various options on the autoloader. The Setup menu 
consists of the following sub-menus:   

Language  
Read Error Skip  
CD Writing Mode  
Max Audio, VCD & CDG Speed  
Buzzer  
Startup Menu  
Screen Saver  
Counter  
AUTOCOPY Enabled 
DVD+R Compatibility Mode  
Disable Drives  

Each of these options is discussed in its own subsection.
