A useful tip when configuring your audio disc, is to <BR>split this =
into two=20
partitions. Set up a smaller "audio scratch" <BR>partition - say 6GB =
of a 30GB=20
hard disc. This partition will be used for <BR>the songs that you are=20
currently working on. The benefit of a smaller <BR>partition is =
obviously=20
quicker defragmentation. If you use the entire <BR>30GB as one =
partition, then=20
this will take ages to defragment. When you <BR>are finished with a =
song,=20
transfer the audio files to the non-scratch <BR>partition, where disc =
