Hard Drive Partition

In order to improve the performance of your computer’s DVgate™ Motion

software, the hard disk drive on your computer has been formatted with two

partitions, C and D.* DVgate Motion saves files to the D partition. This prevents

large video captures from consuming the available space on your C partition. To

maintain optimum performance of DVgate Motion, you should defragment your

D partition regularly. See the DVgate Motion online help for more information.

* See “Specifications” on page109.
