Using Your VAIO Computer

Using the Memory Stick Media

Memory Stick media is a compact, portable, and versatile IC recording media especially designed for exchanging and sharing digital data with compatible products, such as digital cameras, mobile phones and other devices. Because it is removable, it can be used for external data storage.

Before You Use the Memory Stick Media

The Memory Stick slot on your computer can accommodate only Duo-size media and supports Memory Stick PRO and Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo formats with high speed data transfer and large data capacity capabilities.

Before using a Memory Stick Micro (M2) media, be sure to insert it into an M2 Duo-size Adaptor. If you insert the media directly into the Memory Stick slot without the Adaptor, you may not be able to remove it from the slot.
