TASCAM SX-1
Quick Start Guide
NOTE
Check the
Verify
checkbox to ensure that the data
backed up is the same as is stored on the SX-1’s hard
disk. Since the verify operation performs a bit-by-bit
comparison after the backup has been made, any
backup with the verify checkbox set will take twice as
long as a backup without the verify operation.
