Using Memory Stick® Media

This new compact, portable, and versatile recording medium has a data capacity exceeding that of a floppy disk. The media is specially designed for exchanging and sharing digital data with compatible products. Because it is removable, the media can be used for external data storage.

Types of Memory Stick Media

Two types of Memory Stick media are available. The first type, MagicGate™ (hereafter referred as MG™ Memory Stick media), is provided with

copyright protection. The second type, simply referred to as Memory Stick media, does not have the same copyright protection as MagicGate.

You can use both media with your notebook.

For music, which requires copyright protection, you can only use MG Memory Stick media with your notebook. You can also use MagicGate-compatible devices to record and playback music when they are connected to your computer.

You can store mixed data on the Memory Stick media. For example, you can copy an image on to MG Memory Stick media that already contains music.
