You can daisy chain multiple MDS-B5 decks and copy
ATRAC compressed data through the DIRECT
DUPLICATION LINK connectors to perform dubbing
at maximum of about four times the normal dubbing
speed. Up to ten MDS-B5 decks can be daisy chained.
Do the procedure for direct ATRAC data copying on
the main deck.
For details on the settings for direct ATRAC data copying
and on specifying an MDS-B5 as a main deck, sub deck, or
