Backup Options
There are several methods you can use to backup song data
from the VS-1824. It is important to remember that simply
backing up a song does not automatically remove it from the
current drive. If you wish to free up drive space, backup the
song using one of the methods described below, and then use

Song Erase to remove it from the current drive.
DAT Backup
Data backup to DAT tape is very economical, since DAT
tapes are rather inexpensive. However, the process can take a
long time. One 60-minute DAT tape can hold approximately
330 MB of song data. Large amounts of song data will
automatically be copied across multiple DAT tapes as
necessary. DAT tapes are also reusable. For more detailed
information regarding using a DAT recorder for data
backup, see Chapter 19, starting on p. 238.

External Removable Drive
You can copy songs from the current drive to an external
removable hard disk such as a Zip disk using the Song Copy
function. This is a great way to quickly backup a song before
temporarily removing it from the current drive. This method
is fast; however, the cost per MB of storage is higher than it
would be with DAT tape or CD-R/CD-RW disks. One Zip
disk can hold approximately 100 MB of song data. Using the
Song Copy Archives, large amounts of song data will
automatically be copied across multiple Zip disks as
necessary. Zip disks and other types of removable disks are
also reusable. For more detailed information regarding using
an external removable hard drive for data backup, see
“Saving a Song to an External Drive (Song Copy),” p. 223.
