The player

Some models can be directly connected to the USB port of the computer. If necessary, an optional USB extension cable can be used.

The digital audio player will appear as a removable disk drive*.

It might take several seconds for the device (the Digital Audio Player) to be detected, especially in Windows 2000/XP. Click Refresh in My Computer or Explorer to make sure the device has been detected.

Note

The Digital Audio Player is capable of transferring files

at full-speed when a USB 2.0 connection is used. USB 2.0 is up to 40 times faster than USB 1.1. If a USB 2.0 port is available on your computer, use it to connect to your Digital Audio Player. The player is still backward compatible with the older USB 1.1 ports. However, you will not be able to take full advantage of the potential speed increase.

*Depending on device and computer operating system, the digital audio player will appear as a removable disk drive (MSC device) or a MTP device.

The player may allow user to select MSC or MTP mode, please check the settings menu in the player.

Basically, computer can identify the device type automatically. If both OS and device support MTP, the player will appear as a MTP device, otherwise the player will appear as a removable disk drive.

Currently only XP with Windows Media Player 10 installed could support MTP and MSC. Other OS (Win98, ME, 2000, XP without WMP10 , and Mac OS) support MSC only.
