II.Make Hard
Copying from the Hard Drive is the best way to make copies. Overall, there are 4 benefits to copying from the Hard Drive:
i.Performance – Duplicating from the Hard Drive will be able to boost the DVD duplication speed to 8x or above.
ii.Stability – Duplicating from Hard Drive will stabilize the duplication process compared to the Disc to Disc duplicating.
iii.Durability – Hard Drive is a much better storage device than DVD recordable discs. First of all, DVD recordable discs are composed of chemical materials tend to degrade over a period of time while Hard Drives are made of magnetic disks which will last over 100 years. Secondly, DVD recordable discs are often exposed and can very easily be scratched on its surface, while Hard Drives are covered with metal and mounted inside the duplicator.
iv.Convenience – With your master discs stored inside the Hard Drive, you can have access to each one easily. There is no need to carry your master discs; they are all stored inside the duplicator.
If your duplicator has a Hard Drive installed, a partition will be created whenever you begin to load to a new partition. The capacity of the created partition will be the same as the size of your master disc rounded up to the next Gigabyte.
The number of partitions the hard drive can hold is determined by the capacity of your hard drive and the size of the partitions you created.
