DriveTools32 and
Database Files
DriveTools32 uses a unique database file for each drive so that you can
configure each drive individually. DriveTools32 ships with many of the database
files that it will need (refer to Appendix A,
Products Supported by
DriveTools32
).
If a drive does not have a database file in DriveTools32, you will be prompted to
download a database file when you try to connect to it in a DriveTools32
application.
Important:
By default, DriveTools32 downloads database files into its program
folder. You can change the folder to which database files are downloaded by
selecting
Set Data Base Path
in the DriveTools32 application’s
Options
menu.
You must specify a path and then select
Use Alternate Data Base Directory
.
