ADAT HD24 Reference Manual
Backing up your work
Because the ADAT HD24 has two removable drive
bays, you can make a safety copy of your valuable
recordings right in the unit, as long as you have
two drives. While hard drives can run for
thousands of hours without maintenance, and store
data without decay for many years, hard drive
“crashes” due to mechanical abuse or wear are still
possible. Especially if you’re carrying the HD24 on
the road, back up your data often.
To copy a whole song from one
drive to another:
First make sure you have mounted and powered
drives in both bays. Both DRIVE LEDs should be
green. Use the
DRIVE
button to select the source
drive (that holds the song you want to copy).
1. Press the
UTILITY
button until you get to the first
page, looking something like this:
Util01:HD Copy
Song01->HD1?
Y /N
2. To select another Song to copy, press the
<
(CURSOR LEFT)
button to place the cursor
under the Song number.
3. Press the
YES
(

) or
N O
(
▼
) buttons to select
the desired song to copy to the other drive.
4. Press the
>
(CURSOR RIGHT)
button to place the
cursor under “Y/N” in the display.
5. Press the
YES
(
▲
) button to copy the song to the
other drive.
To copy the contents of the entire
drive:
Follow the instructions for copying a song, but at
step 3 keep pressing
YES
(

) until you see “All
Songs” in the display:
Util01:HD Copy
AllSongs->HD1?

Alternatively, you can back up your work to a
computer hard disk via Ethernet. See
chapter 9: Using Ethernet .
