Downloading Tracktor?

Trying to Download Traktor DJ Software via external disc drive. It says that it cannot be installed on this disk. I'm not very tech savy, so any DJ's that are using Mac and Tracktor and any helpful tips that would be great! Thanks!

Yes, software can't install unless there's an OS to install to. If you install OS X on that disk, it will wipe out any data you have there. If you can copy off the data before you do that. Once you have the data copied a better option may be to simply clone your present internal drive to your external using using a cloning utility likeSuperDuper. Then you will have a bootable backup of everything on your internal hard drive. The advantages are in the event of a hard drive problem you can always boot from the clone and keep working until it's fixed, You also have a drive configured with all the software you normally use so it's a better test to see how it functions in the same environment as your other software.
