If you are copying files to DVD, insert a blank DVD
into the optional external writable optical disc drive.
If you are copying files to a USB flash drive, connect
a USB flash drive of the required minimum capacity
(as specified in the TOSHIBA Recovery Media
Creator utility) to your device.
All information stored on your DVDs or USB flash drive(s)
will be erased during the process of creating the recovery
media. Be sure to save the information stored on your
external media to another storage device before
executing this procedure, or use blank media.
If you are copying the recovery files to DVDs, be sure to
label each DVD in the set sequentially (for example, "1 of
3," "2 of 3," etc.), so that you will know in which order to
insert the discs during recovery.
The recovery process deletes information stored on the
internal storage drive. Be sure to save your work to
external media before executing the recovery (see
