Hello Cemil,

My 2010.5 Hard drive shows 160 GB in total with about 60 GB free.

Can I presume that it is possible to buy the DVD and copy the files on my present drive? I am using BIAB off its HD drive and don't really want to do a computer hard disk installation. It seems a waste to keep buying HD drives off pgmusic.

I also agree with the comments that all these paks are getting very confusing. For example, what's the difference between Ultra Plus and Everything?



Yes, you can certainly get the DVD version and install to your Band-in-a-Box external hard drive. A full installation of the Summer PlusPAK requires about 18 GB of free space. When you run the installation, you just need to press the [Install on specific volume] button, and choose your Band-in-a-Box hard drive. One drawback to getting the DVD's rather than a new hard drive is the installation time. It takes about 50 minutes to install all the new 101 RealTracks. Of course, you wouldn't need to sit by your computer while it's installing, aside from having to swap DVD's (there are 5 DVD's).

If you get a new hard drive then you don't have that hassle, and in addition you get all of the files, fully updated, on a fresh hard drive. Then you can use your other hard drive for whatever you want, such as a backup drive.

The difference between the UltraPlus and EverythingPAK is that the Everything has the "Songs and Lessons". You might already have this from a previous purchase. You can find the files in the "Songs and Lessons" folder in your Band-in-a-Box folder.
