5.2 How to Prepare Removable Media
For a removable medium to be used on the SND Server, it must have
the 'FAT32', 'FAT16' or 'FAT12' file system. You can format the
removable medium on the SND Server accordingly. In the process a
partition will be created spanning the entire removable medium.
Whether formatting is required, is displayed in the mySND Control
Center under the 'Media preparation' menu item in the 'Media
status' table.
To facilitate the identification of a removable medium, assign a
freely definable name.
