Other hard disk considerations
• Make sure the hard disk does not have automatic “thermal recalibration”. Or,
at least use a hard disk that only performs thermal recalibration when the
hard disk is not in operation. Some manufacturers sell special “A/V” (Audio/
Video) drives, claimed to be specifically suitable for hard disk recording. This
usually means (among other things) that the drive doesn't have automatic
thermal recalibration.
• Try to get as large a disk as you can. We recommend 1GByte and up. You will
get 1 minute of mono audio for each 5 MByte on the hard disk, per Track, at
44.1kHz sample rate. This means that if you for example record two stereo
Tracks, you will use up 20 MByte per minute.
• We recommend that you save your audio files together with your Song docu-
ments on a separate drive, leaving the main drive of your computer to hold
Windows, program files and the like.
