Format Disk
Prevent lost frames due to file fragmentation by formatting the 
FS-100 before each recording session. 
This selection formats the disk as follows:
1. From the Utilities screen, go to 
Format Disk. 
2. Select 
YES to begin formatting.
A status screen displays progress of the formatting and at 
completion displays the message:
•
Complete indicating Repair Disk was successful. 
•
Aborted indicating that there were errors and the repair 
did not complete.
3. Press 
BACK to return to the Utility screen. 
Save Files Before Formatting 
The formatting process erases all data on the disk and is not 
reversible. Backup all files and clips on the FS-100 before 
formatting. 
Formatting Larger Hard Disks
The FS-100 FORMAT utility automatically creates multiple partitions for 
larger hard disks.
