Write-protecting a Memory Stick™
Memory Sticks™
are designed with an erasure prevention switch to protect valuable data from accidental
erasure or overwriting.
Move the tab to the right or left* to set or release write-protection. When the erasure prevention switch is
off, data can be saved on the Memory Stick™. When the erasure prevention switch is on, data can be read
from but not saved on the Memory Stick™.
* The 128 MB Memory Stick™ has a vertical lock.
Inserting a Memory Stick™

1
Once you have stored your data from your digital device, insert the Memory Stick™ with the arrow
facing up and toward the Memory Stick™ slot.
2
Carefully slide the Memory Stick™ into the slot until it clicks in place.
The Memory Stick™ is automatically detected by your system and appears in your
My Computer
window as a local drive, under the appropriate letter (depending on the configuration of your
computer).
