copy
is
completed, the target disk will be identical
to
the source
disk.
With
Disk Copy, the target copy's disk name will be the
same as the source disk's name.
No
matter how you perform the
data
transfer procedure,
it
is
more easily accomplished with the optional second disk
drive. To utilize this capability, simply insert both disks
and
then use either
of
the previously described methods.
DISK FILE COPY
Now
that
we
have a copy
of
the
data
disk,
we
can continue
to
use the original disk
to
change
or
add to the information
upon it. When
we
have completed those changes,
we
will want
to save the documents
we
have added
or
changed
and
record
those changes on the backup disk. To do this
we
do
not
need
to
copy the entire disk. We need only
to
copy the files
we
want
updated.
The procedure
is
similar to
that
used with disk copying. To
copy files, simply move the file icon
or
icons from the source
disk icon
to
the target disk icon. The
Mac
will indicate the files
remaining to be copied and will request disk switches until the
operation
is
complete.
If
you are transferring a folder, the
number
of
files remaining will equal the number
of
files within
the folder.
If
there are files
of
the same name already residing
on the target disk, the Mac will display a box asking if you want
those files replaced.
Be
sure not
to
try to place the source disk's copy
of
a folder
icon directly upon the target disk's copy of that same folder's
icon. The Mac will interpret this as
an
attempt
to
place one
folder within
another
folder
of
the same name. This action will
be disallowed.
