4. Remove the "ToshibaCDR.device-plugin" file from this folder but keep it
safely on your hard drive in another location such as a folder on your
desktop. (When you next update your system software it is recommended to
first go back and replace the MCEcomb8CDR.device-plugin file with the
"ToshibaCDR.device-plugin" file. This must be done under Mac OS 9.2.x
as well.)

Making a bootable CD with Toast Software
The Toast software allows you to make a bootable CD by simply “dragging and
dropping” the current Mac OS 9.x System folder onto the Toast window.
1) Within Toast window, cllick the Data button.
2) Click on New CD.
3) Drag your System folder icon into the Toast window.
4) Click on the Record icon.
Note: It’s a good idea to run with minimal extensions while creating a
bootable CD since many extensions need to be able to write to the
startup volume during startup, which is not possible with a CD.
Important Usage Notes
The MCE Xcarét Pro Expansion Bay Drive is designed to withstand the normal,
reasonable handling involved with mobile use. It is not designed to handle
abrupt shock such as that experienced in dropping, pounding, banging or
otherwise smashing the Xcarét Pro Drive. Exercise care when handling the
Xcarét Pro drive and it will provide you with reliable and extended storage
capabilities. To avoid possible damage to the CD tray or the drive, keep the tray
closed when you are not using it. Also, be sure to always store the Xcarét Pro
Drive in its handy protective case during transport when it is not in the Power-
Book, such as when it’s inside a computer carrying case.
