You can now unplug the USB cable.

If a panel telling you it is not safe to remove the DP-01 appears, do not
“close” or unplug the DP-01. Close all programs and windows that are
accessing the files on the DP-01 and try again.

Disconnecting from a Macintosh system

When you are discon

necting the DP 01 from a Macintosh system (OS 9 or OS X), drag the disk
icon to the Trash, or press Command E (OS X 10.3 also has a button in the
Finder which allows ejecting removable media). When the icon has disap
peared from your desktop, you can disconnect the DP 01.

“Open” and “Close”

Make sure that you
have saved songs,

copied all the files you’re going to
transfer to the PC to the FAT parti-
tion, etc., before you open the DP-
01.

Before using the DP-01’s FAT partition, you must “open” the system
so that it can be read by the PC. While the system is open, you can-
not perform any recording, playback, etc., or any operations involv-
ing the DP-01 hard disk.
