The plextalk accepts two types of PC cards. One is semiconductor memories like
compact flash cards, and another is hard disk type memories, like micro drivers or
mobile disks.
In some cases of PC cards (Compact flash cards or micro drivers), you need PC
Card Type ll adapter to use.
Semiconductor memories are available in various capacities, including 64MB,
128MB, 256MB, 512MB, and 1GB. They offer faster access times for reading and
writing; therefore compared with editing on CD media, tasks can be performed in a
semiconductor memory. In addition, their greater energy efficiency makes them
perfect for recording over longer periods on battery power.
The advantage of hard disk type memories, on the other hand, is their greater
memory capacity. Available in 1GB, 2GB, and 5GB types, these memory products
support the backup of entire CDs and the parallel recording and editing of multiple
DAISY books. However, driving their internal hard disk drives requires more power
than for semiconductor memories, so they cannot be operated on battery power for
as long.
The deleting and overwriting of data on PC cards is the same as for CD media
specifically, when phrases or sections are cut, the data itself remains intact on the
PC card. When titles are erased, however, the data is deleted to free space for the
recording of new data.
One important fact to keep in mind when using PC cards is that when the card is
ejected from the Plextalk, either

Disc
must be chosen or
the Plextalk must be turned off. Failure to do so may cause the recorded data to
be unreadable. The surest method is probably simply to switch off the power
before ejecting cards. In addition, protect the PC card interface edge from dirt
and dust. After ejecting a PC card, be sure to store it in the case.
You need a PC card that has enough capacity for recording, depending on the
recording time and desired sound quality.
