Pro Magic Plus Buffer Area Spec.

1. Pro Magic Plus Buffer Area Specification List

Protection Buffer Area Size

(Selected during Installation)

Actual Size used

Buffer Space required

to install buffer area

100M 165M 765M

200M 290M 890M

500M 550M 1.2GB

1G 965M 1.6GB

Selected protection buffer area size plus 600 MB is the required partition size to install protection buffer

area. During installation process, Pro Magic Plus will divide required protection space (buffer area) from

the last partition of HDD. The size of divided last partition must not be smaller than 512MB.

For example, if selected 200MB Buffer Area size, rules as below:

Last partition’s remaining space must be larger than [Actual Size Used].

a. If choose 200MB of protection buffer area, it actually needs about 290MB of disk space, and then

has to add about 600MB space. In other words, the last partition must be larger than 890 MB to

be able to install protection buffer area, and after partitioned buffer area, the remaining space in

last partition must larger than 290MB.

b. This 890MB partition must remain about 290MB x 1.15 = 330MB free space, because Pro Magic

requires extra space (for buffering) when adjusting protection buffer area.

c. If data in the last partition are too scattered, it may be thought as ‘insufficient space’ during

installation. Please run defrag disk and try to install again.

NOTE

1. Above partition size standard is based on FAT32 format partitions. NTFS and FAT16 format partitions

may have minor differences.

2. If end of HDD remains un-partitioned space, it will affect installation program’s adjustment to partition size.

Please fully partition the HDD before install Pro Magic.
