Backing Up Your FireBall
Once you have successfully mounted your FireBall’s Content volume on your PC, you now
have access to the music content contain on the FireBall’s internal hard drive. Having this
access affords you the opportunity to backup your FireBall’s music collection. There are many
ways to backup the music files including copying files to another drive mounted on your PC or
using third party backup software to perform automated backups each night.
Note: Internet Radio Stations, and System Settings are not backed up. Only the actual music
files are available for backup within the Content volume mounted on your PC Desktop.
One Time Backup
If you are only going to make a one time backup of the FireBall for safe keeping, it is
recommended to do a simple drag and drop of the Content volume to another hard drive or
volume mounted on your PC. This one time backup method is useful if your FireBall music
collection is not going to change much from day to day and you simply want to preserve a copy
as a failsafe to some catastrophic event such as theft, loss by fire, or hard drive crash. This is
typically done by an installer or dealer who wants to keep an offsite copy of the installed
FireBall for safety reasons.
Escient recommends that a 300 GB external USB drive be used for each full FireBall backup
and stored in a different physical location from the FireBall to reduce the possibility of loosing
both the FireBall and the Backup Drive in a single catastrophic event.
Follow these steps to backup all music files from your FireBall to an external hard drive
connected to your PC.

Locate the CONTENT volume
in Explorer given the drive letter you assigned to it.
2. Open the CONTENT volume, choose
Select All
from the edit menu to select all of the
files and folders in the CONTENT volume.
3. While all the items on the Content volume are highlighted
,

Menu.
