Operation
When Disposing of or Transferring Ownership of This Device
When disposing of or transferring ownership of this device, erase all data on the hard disk in
order to prevent the theft of hard disk data. Even if you delete data or initialize the hard disk
through normal Windows commands, data can still be read using special software. In order to
erase all data, either have the data erased by a specialist (at a charge) or use the hard disk data
erase utility (included) (
page 39). (Note that this hard disk data erase utility does not
guarantee that data will be completely erased.)
Also, note that if you transfer ownership of this device without deleting commercial soft-
ware that you have installed to the hard disk, you may be in violation of the licensing
agreement for that software.
When Changing Hard Disk Partitions
When using the hard disk backup function (
page 35), do not divide up the hard disk before
creating a backup region. If you do this, the backup region cannot be created. Divide into the
partition when the backup region is created.
Windows Update
You can use the latest patches and service packs for Windows with the following menus.
Do not apply “Driver Updates” even if a message to update a driver appears. If a driver
update is required, contact to Panasonic Technical Support.
