About Disks
• Only DOS-format disks (The CD-ROM format is ISO9660
Level 1) can be used by the RS7000. Disks formatted by the
RS7000 are formatted using DOS format.
• The RS7000 cannot write to CD-R/RW disks.
• Disks formatted to DOS format by a personal computer can be
used with the RS7000, but we recommend using disks format-
ted by the RS7000.
• When formatted using the RS7000, disks with a capacity of
less than 260 MB are formatted using FAT16 format, and larger
disks are formatted using FAT32 format.
• MO disks which can be used with the RS7000 include 128 MB,
230 MB, and 540 MB types. MO disks with a capacity of 640
MB and above cannot be used.
• The RS7000 can use up to 2 GB removable disks. Even if a
larger disk is connected the RS7000 will use a maximum of 2
GB. Further, all removable disks are formatted using FAT16
format.
