About memory cards
Your Home Server supports the “Memory Stick” media, the SD memory card, and the CompactFlash
media. The following describes the precautions on using individual types of media.
“Memory Stick” media
– You can use 5 types of the “Memory Stick” media on your Home Server:
“Memory Stick,” “Memory Stick Duo”, “Memory Stick PRO”, “Memory Stick PRO Duo”, and “Memory Stick
PRO-HG Duo.”
– The Memory Stick slot on your Home Server can accommodate both standard- and Duo-size media. You can
insert the Duo-size “Memory Stick” media directly into the Memory Stick slot without using the adapter.
– Do not insert the “Memory Stick” media and the “Memory Stick Duo” media into the Memory Stick slot at
the same time, as it may damage the slot and/or the media.
– The Memory Stick slot on your Home Server does not support the MagicGate feature of the “Memory Stick”
media. This means that you cannot use copyright-protected data on the Home Server.
About “MagicGate”
MagicGate is the general name of the copyright protection technology developed by Sony. This technology
ensures that the protected content is only transferred between a MagicGate compliant device and the
“Memory Stick” media (authentication) and that the protected content is recorded and transferred in an
encrypted format. Before playing the protected content, the MagicGate feature also checks for authenticity
and decrypts the protected content only if authentication has succeeded in order to protect against playback
of copyright-protected data on an unauthenticated device.
– The Memory Stick slot on your Home Server does not support 8-bit parallel data transfer.
– Your Home Server has been tested and found compatible with Sony branded “Memory Stick” media with a
capacity of up to 16 GB that are available as of August 2008. However, not all “Memory Stick” media that
meet the same specifications as the compatible media are guaranteed of compatibility.
SD memory card
Your Home Server has been tested and found compatible only with SD memory cards with a capacity of
up to 2 GB and SDHC memory cards with a capacity of up to 16 GB available as of May 2008. However,
not all memory card meet the same specifications.
CompactFlash media
Your Home Server supports the Type-I and II CompactFlash media. However, not all CompactFlash
media meet the same specifications.
