Three types of disks are used with the Disklavier: floppy disks, CDs, and internal Memory Disks.

Floppy Disks

Besides PianoSoft and PianoSoft.Plus song disks, the Disklavier can play back songs stored on 3.5- inch MS-DOS 720 kilobytes format 2DD floppy disks and MS-DOS 1.44 megabytes format 2HD floppy disks.

Handling Floppy Disks

Be careful of the following when handling floppy disks.

•Do not touch the surface of a disk.

•Do not store or place disks near a television, radio, loudspeaker, or any other device that generates a magnetic field.

•Do not expose disks to extreme temperature or humidity. The working temperature range for disks is between 4˚C and 52˚C (40˚F to 125˚F).

•Do not use disks in a dusty, dirty or smoky environment.

•Remove the disk before you turn off the Disklavier.

Accidental Erasure Protection

Floppy disks have an erasure protection tab which can be set so that the Disklavier cannot record new data onto the disk. This is useful for protecting valuable song data against accidental erasure and disk formatting. The protection tab is located on the reverse side of the disk in the bottom right-hand corner.

Protected

When the tab window is open, data is protected.

Unprotected

When the tab window is closed, data is not protected.
