DDFLSPTH2-ADFlashPath Floppy Adapter for MultiMediaCard

3.The FlashPath can be accessed in the same manner as you would a 3.5” floppy disk. For example, double-click the 31/2 Floppy (A:) icon. The initial card recognition may take longer with higher capacity cards.

Transferring Files with the FlashPath

•It is recommended that you copy files to a destination folder on the hard drive before accessing them.

Cameras write image files with generic names (i.e. IMG0001.JPG, IMG0002.JPG, IMG0003.JPG, etc.) and begin counting again at 001 when a blank card is inserted. When transferring files to a common location, this can result in two or more files on your computer having the same name, prompting you to overwrite. To avoid overwriting, create a new folder for each transfer session or optionally rename the individual picture files.

•After verifying that all the desired files have been copied to your hard drive, the original files on the MultiMediaCard can then be deleted.
