The USB Mass Storage Class is a standard established for con-
necting the large capacity memory devices (mass storage
devices) to the USB port of a computer. Because the USB
devices conforming to this standard are recognized as external
memory devices without the need for special drivers or soft-
ware, even a digital audio player can be handled in the same way
as an external memory device.

or USB devices cannot be operated directly.
