can libraries run from hardrive?

I seem to recall running across the answer to this here a while back.

 

Can all the model libraries be transfered to the HD and not run off the CD? I know that it would still be necessary to have the CD in to run the prog, and I'm fine with that. I just thought it might make things go a little faster to have all that goodness running of the box instead of the CD.

 

If so, has anyone tried this and was there a noticible difference?

 

Thanks.

 

C.

Yes indeed. Libaries can (and generally should) be run from the harddrive.

If you install an update the option will be there to copy your files to the harddrive I recommend checking that. If you don't you won't be able to add/subtract from your library as it will reside on a 'read only CD.

 

As the Library files are text files there are other ways to work with Libraries on your harddrive but for existing Libraries I recommend using the built in installer.

 

Yes there is a noticeable difference as A:M doesn't have to access the CDRom drive.
