Back up the bins and projects on 3.5-inch diskettes after each editing or
scheduling session.
Why Saving is Important
While you work, the project is only stored in volatile RAM.
If the power fails and the system shuts down unexpectedly, the Avid
Media Processor loses everything stored in RAM. Saving the bins and
projects protects the work by copying the information from RAM to
the storage drives.

Why Backups are Important
Drives can provide long-term storage, but over time, they might
become damaged, or the Þles saved on the drives could be
accidentally destroyed or corrupted.
