Deleting Files on Internal Drive

Hello!

First time caller, short time lurker.

I've recently purchased an Akai MPC Live II used (and MPC Bible 3) and it came with some project files that I have since erased. I have also seen a directory on the Internal drive called Splice, which I'm assuming belonged to the previous owner. There are an incredible number of files in there and deleting manually would take some time. Is there any way I can just blow away anything on the internal drive that isn't part of the device software/settings?

Looking forward to getting started (lifetime musician, but this is my first foray into MPC)!

The intent was to start from scratch on page one of the MPC Bible, but if that's a dangerous game, I'd rather not play it. Thanks for the advice!

Sorry, I meant deleting folders was dangerous. I fully intend to continue my studies with the MPC Bible.

Just leave the Internal Drive Alone. It will NOT Improve performance. It will only soothe OCD Tendencies lol. Save all your projects on External Medias

The actual operating system itself resides on a totally seperate partition. You cannot erase the operating system from the file browser it doesn't have access to the rootfs, and the rootfs is set to read only to keep files integrity in tact if a user such as dustyslices were to symlink it to his content partition.

the problem people have with erasing the content partition is a result of using the "format" option in the browser on their content partition. the operating system, while mounting drives looks for a specific "UUID" (unique id) and mounts the content partition according to that UUID. When users use the "format" function it seems to not set the unique UUID needed on the partition, so when they reboot the operating system cannot find the content partition by uuid and seemingly goes into a bootloop.

It is safe however to simply delete anything you want with the proper "delete" function from the browser provided you dont use format and destroy the uniq id of the content partition. Select the projects folder, hold shift press delete. no problem.

here is a list of the partitions on the emmc to better understand the internal disk structure.
