8.5.2 Data organization on the hard disk
There are three different drives (partitions):
TNC partition User-specific data such as NC programs, tool tables, and datum tables.
PLC partition Your OEM-specific data such as system files, PLC programs, machine 
parameters, help files, PLC dialogs, PLC error tables, compensation value 
tables and OEM cycles. The PLC partition is visible only after you have entered 
the code number 807667.
As a machine tool builder, you are concerned primarily with the PLC partition.
SYS partition For HEIDENHAIN
System-specific files, such as system files, NC dialogs, HEIDENHAIN cycles, 
etc.
The partition SYS can neither be viewed nor selected.
Assignment to 
drives
Define all your machine-specific settings with the configuration editor!
Alterations to the system partition can impair proper function of the control!
