3.2 Managing Memory

Storage and Program Memory

Files, settings and data that you add to your Pocket PC are stored in RAM (Random Access Memory). The RAM on your Pocket PC is shared between storage memory and program memory.

Storage memory

Storage memory is used to store the data you create and additional programs you install.

Program memory

Program memory is used to run programs on your Pocket PC.

Your Pocket PC automatically manages the allocation between storage and program memory. However, in some situations, such as when the memory is running out, your Pocket PC may not be able to automatically adjust the allocation. (For information on solving memory problems, see section 7.4.)

Additional Memory

You can buy a SD/MMC storage card for backup, storage, archives or to transfer large files to other devices. Files stored on a storage card appear in a folder called Storage Card, listed under My Device in the File Explorer application.
