We loaded the entire 'treasure chest' from Dakota right onto the hard drive...was always told running off a CD was not recommended. Used to do that with a 6 disk CD changer for my fonts and graphics for my sign shop...after 6-7 years, the CD's were pretty scratched and the CD changer finally died! Have had issues with CD players on different computers-so everything gets copied right into a file. My amaya computer has two hard drives in it, had it customized when I got it- so the 'files' are saved on the larger hard drive, the 'program' (Design Shop and Amaya OS) are on their own hard drive. As we get different files of designs (like the whole Melco design folder we found) those get moved to the storage hard drive.
