This is an Open System which means you can installadditional software, and these should be installed on the C: drive. However,only a limited set of software applications are tested for use with theKeysight measurement software. The installation and/or use of othersoftware is not warranted and could interfere with the operation of themeasurement software. If instrument repair is ever needed, the Keysightversion of the C: drive is the only part of the instrument software that isrestored by the Instrument Recovery process. You must reload any othersoftware that you have added in the instrument.— The D: partition is reserved for data storage. The User Accounts that areconfigured by Keysight have their My Documents folder mapped to the D:drive. This is for the convenience of backing-up the measurement data. Youshould always back-up the data on the D: drive to an external device. Thisallows you to restore the data if you ever need to replace the disk drive.— The E: partition is reserved for Keysight’s use. The primary use of the E:drive is for housing the Calibration and Alignment data. Do not change oroverwrite the files on this drive.
