Advanced Configuration and Operation
3.
This card reader slot supports
Sony Memory Stick
. It is compatible with Memory
Stick, Memory Stick Pro and Memory Stick Duo. For Memory Stick Duo an
adapter is required.
4.
This slot supports
CompactFlash cards
and
Microdrives
. You can insert any
Type I or Type II cards (CF I, CF II). Standard flash memory cards are usually
Type I cards. Other storage media such as IBM/Hitachi Microdrive follow the
Type II specifications. They are slightly larger and thicker but can still be inserted
without any problems into this slot.
Thanks to the distinguishing appearance of the card reader, its slots and the cards
themselves, you will probably not confuse the different types when inserting them.
Mechanically, they only fit into the right slot.
Each memory card has a top and a bottom side. Please pay attention to the proper
orientation of the memory cards when inserting them. All memory cards must be
inserted with their upper side facing upwards. Most memory cards (e.g. Compact-
Flash or Microdrive) have a label and model indication on their top side. This should
make it easy for you to align them properly.
Insert the cards carefully into the corresponding slot. Do not apply brute force
when inserting a card. If a card cannot be inserted easily, you may have chosen the
wrong card reader slot or the card may be aligned upside down.
Notice
Unfortunately, not all memory card manufacturers respect all the established
specifications. Therefore, a global compatibility with all cards cannot be
guaranteed due to the sheer number of manufacturers.
Transferring and Saving Data on the PC
Windows does not handle card readers as any specific devices but just as a normal
disk drive. This means that you don't need to install or configure any drivers or need
any special software for accessing them.
