Drive Check

You can check the drive you are using to make sure it can be read correctly. This is referred to as a “Drive Check.” A Drive Check can determine whether a failure during Song Copy (p. 224) or DAT Backup (p. 232) is due to a problem in the song itself, whether the problem is with the connections, or if there is a problem of some other kind. If data cannot be read correctly, the display will indicate the song in which the error occurred.
