When viewed from a PC using Sony Ericsson PC Suite, the 'C:' drive is named 'Phone Memory', but only a subset of the folders is accessible from the PC.

The 4 GB flash memory is named “Media Memory”.

On both the phone memory and the Media memory, there is a folder for each media type: audio, video and image. Documents are stored under the 'document' folder. An 'Other' folder provides a place for files that do not fit into the other categories.
