Note: Because hard drive transfer times can be a bottleneck, to get the fastest DoremiAM
station, use faster hard drives such as SATA or eSATA instead of using a slower network or
USB drives.

2.4 Database and Drop-in Folders Setup

2.4.1 Database Folder

When Asset Manager is installed it will automatically create default database folders for all the
available database types. The Database folders will be found in: ~/Doremi Asset Manager/ and
are named “Default_Nugget”, “Default_V1_HD” and “Defualt_V1_UNCOMPRESSED”.

Note: You must select a different database for each of the following type of devices: Nugget,
V1-HD and V1-UHD.

Note: Make sure that the current database used by Doremi Asset Manager belongs to the
device type you intend to use.
