3-4-1 Notes on “Memory Stick”
What is “Memory Stick”?
“Memory Stick” is a new compact, portable and versatile
IC (Integrated Circuit) recording medium with a data
capacity that exceeds a floppy disk. “Memory Stick” is
specially designed for exchanging and sharing digital data
among “Memory Stick” compatible products. Because it is
removable, “Memory Stick” can also be used for external
data storage.
“Memory Stick” media are available in three sizes:
standard size, compact “Memory Stick Duo” size, and the
smallest “Memory Stick Micro” (“M2”
1)
) size. Once
attached to a Memory Stick Duo adapter, a “Memory Stick
Duo” is the same size as a standard “Memory Stick,” and
as a result can be used with products requiring a standard
“Memory Stick.” Also, once attached to a standard-size
M2 adaptor, a “Memory Stick Micro” is the same size as a
standard “Memory Stick,” and as a result can be used with
products requiring a standard “Memory Stick.”
1) “M2” is an abbreviation for “Micro Memory Stick.”
