Every N1000A has a single removable hard disk. When it comes time to return the
N1000A to Keysight for calibration, before returning the instrument remove the
hard drive which is easily done. Because calibration data is stored on an internal
EPROM and not on the hard disk, the hard disk with its sensitive data never has to
leave your site. Keysight does not need your hard disk to perform the calibration.
The hard disk includes both drive C (INFINIIUM) and drive D (USER). Drive C
contains the following items:
•Operating system
• N1000A application
• Any factory or user installed applications
•Application licenses (automatically backed up to drive D)
Drive D contains the following items:
•Backup files
• User files including data files
To Remove the Hard Disk
1 Press the ON/Standby switch to the standby position.
2 Remove the power cord.
3 Locate the hard disk on the N1000A's rear panel as shown in Figure 18 on
page 38.
CAUTION
Use standard anti-static precautions when handling the hard disk to avoid damaging
the disk.
