Disk & SRam
◆ Don’t forget to Write protect disks that contain your most important data and
maintain a set in a clean, safe place, free from dust, dirt, smoke, ash, liquids,
extreme temperatures and direct sunlight;
◆ Always put the correct size label on the disk (within the outlined location on top
of the disk) and avoid layering labels, as excess disk thickness may cause
misalignment of the drive cartridge. Write on labels with a soft felt pen. Don’t use
lead pencils and don’t use erasers;
◆ Save frequently to avoid loss of edit data due to unforeseen circumstances (power
failure or other). You don’t have to memorise 10 Performances with edit data
before saving. Get into the habit of saving data which might not be easy to replace;
◆ Organise your saved data properly by identifying and documenting it correctly in
order that you know exactly where to go and look for data quickly without wasting
time;
◆ Lastly, remember that loading replaces the current memory contents with that of
the disk. Before loading from disk, think twice as you may be about to erase data
that still hasn’t been saved on disk.
