Note: The HDX-SSD is able
to play CDs directly as
well as ripping them. CD
playback is initiated from
the System Setup menu.
Note: Ripping a CD you
don’t personally own
constitutes a violation
of copyright law. You
must ensure if inserting a
borrowed CD for playback
that the HDX-SSD is not set
automatically to rip the CD.
Note: Although the HDX-
SSD contains a limited
internal music database,
to be able to identify a
CD and download its
associated data during the
ripping process, it must be
connected to a working
internet connection.
