Some users have reported slow search speeds on Engine OS devices when searching for tracks. 


While large track counts on a drive can worsen the search speed, some users have found running a Library Optimization in Engine DJ improves the search speed. 


To do this : 

  • Connect your Engine DJ drive to your computer. If your Engine hardware has a drive installed in the SATA bay, connect a USB cable from your unit to your computer and enter Computer Mode. 

  • Open the Engine DJ desktop software

  • Click the gear icon in the upper right corner of your screen

  • Select the Library tab

  • Scroll down to System and click on Run Cleanup next to Library Optimization. (The job may take some time dependent on your external drive speed, so be patient.)



  • Once cleanup has completed, connect the drive to your Engine hardware and you are ready to go.
