dozen12 dozen12 Billyaxe Space Cadet Registered: 04/08/07 Posts: 23 Loc: NY	In backing up my data via cdr backup, the vs freezes up in the verify step. Not particularly at the same percentages each time - so not always the same spot. I start again and turn off verify option and it does successfully back up the data. When I select CDRecover I see the files. I haven’t tried to upload them yet to confirm but my question is = what does the verify step do and do I need that? And why might it be freezing up? I know the first statement would be do I have the most recent version of software? I may not but I’m nervous about trying that and losing a current project. Im also using the 1x speed scsi CD burner. Any advice? Thanks -Billy

I've never heard of anyone losing data doing an update - it's up to you though, whether or not to do so before having backed up everything. I suppose it might be safe to do 2 backups of whatever is most important first. But if you're having trouble backing up and can't try reloading a backup to confirm before deleting a project (to recover space for instance), you don't get much of a choice - that always suck and feels like a gamble... I know - been there many times. I think the verification process on the machine is a time waster and I've had verified projects fail to reload before, so I never use it. My verification has always been to reload to confirm and then delete the copy to recover space. No guarantee, but there's my slant on it. _________________________ uptildawn

I've even successfully recorded directly to the SD. VSWE then makes the audio files usable by DAW of your choice. There is a bit of configuration required, but it's a one-time thing. ~dk

With a Plextor stand alone 1210TSE external CD burner hooked to my 1680, I use the cheap printable CD's sold by Amazon and get good data and audio CD's every time. _________________________ So many drummers, so little time...

I then recovered the data off the cd onto another partition of my hard drive. It successfully loaded and I checked it. So that will be my procedure from now on.
