VIRTUAL CD PARTITION
The DL3 drive supports a feature called “Virtual CDs” or VCD. This allows the DL3
drive to emulate a physical CD-ROM drive using ISO images. A VCD is a drive
partition, which is recognized by your operating system as a physical Read Only
drive with its own unique drive letter. A VCD is “Read Only” and can only be
overwritten with the VCD Utility. VCDs are commonly used to store virtual
machines, documentation, and executable programs.
Step 1: Download the VCD Uploader utility. Click here.
Step 2: While in the Administrator Setup menu on the DL3 drive, go to the
“SYSTEM” and then “VIRTUAL CD.” Then choose “ENABLE”. Once this feature is
enabled, exit out of the Administrator Setup menu and choose “CONNECT” on
the DL3 drive.
Step 3: On a Windows 7/Vista/XP computer, extract the DL3VCDUploader.zip file
and open the extracted exe file to run the VCD Uploader utility.
