Hard Disk Backup Function
NOTE
Regarding backup area
? Requires availability of at least half of the entire hard disk. Without sufficient space
available, the backup area cannot be created.
? When the backup area is created, the usable hard disk capacity will be reduced to less
than half.
? The backup area cannot be accessed from Windows. For this reason, backed up data
cannot be copied to CD-R or other removable disk media.
? When the hard disk backup function is executed, data in the backup area will be over-
written. If newly created or edited data is backed up later, data stored previously
in the backup area will be lost.
