use your operating system's standard facility for un-mounting
hardware (e.g. “Safely Remove Hardware” under Windows)
before disconnecting the drive.
You can also read disks with Scream!. This allows you to view data in
the process of being transferred, but is slightly slower, because
Scream! does not read data in strict order. To read a disk with
Scream!:
1. Attach the disk to your computer. You can use FireWire, USB,
or any other interface supported by both your PC and the disk.
2. Run Scream!, and select File → Setup... from the main menu.
Select the Files tab.
3. Set the Base Directory, Filename Format and Data Format as
described above. Also, if required, set the Post-processor and
Granularity options to suit your requirements. Consult the
Scream! documentation for details.
4. Select the Recording tab, and check Auto Record—Enable for
Data Streams and Auto Record—Enable for Status Streams.
Click OK. Scream! will remember the recording options you set
in steps 3 and 4 for later occasions.
5. Select File Read SCSI disk...
→
from the main menu. Scream!
will search for attached disks, and open a window with a list of
all the streams it has found.
6. Select the streams you want to replay, and click Open. The disk
will appear in the left-hand pane of Scream!'s main window,
and the streams you have selected will start playing into the
stream buffer, as well as being recorded.
7. When you have finished transferring the data, if you want to
reset the disk, select File Reset SCSI disk...
→
from Scream!'s
main menu. Select the disk you want to reset, and click OK.
