Considerations for Real-World Use

When using the GUIDE to convert data from your own experiments, there are a few things to keep in mind…

Choosing an Output Location

Choosing a good output location is important for two reasons, namely conversion speed and disk space.

1. SSDs will be much faster than HDDs. We’d recommend moving the output location to an SSD if available.

2. On-board (PCI slot) disk drives will be much faster than most conventional external USB drives. We recommend using an on-board disk drive whenever possible.

3. If you don’t have much disk space available on your main drive, we recommend changing the output location to a drive that has ample space.
