A Memory Stick Types
Memory Stick is a removable, compact data storage
card that can be used with digital still cameras and
personal computers. Still images stored in a Memory
Stick can be easily displayed, overwritten or deleted.
There are two types of Memory Sticks: the Memory
Stick for general use, and the MagicGate Memory
Stick, which uses the MagicGate encryption
technology to protect copyrighted material.
Both the Memory Stick for general use and the
MagicGate Memory Stick can be used with this unit.
However, because this unit does not support the
MagicGate standard, data recorded by this unit will not
have MagicGate copyright protection.

Write-protecting Memory Stick data
In order to protect important data from accidental
erasure, the Memory Stick has a write-protect switch.
When the switch is in the lefthand position, data can be
written to or deleted from the Memory Stick, and the
Memory Stick can be initialized. When the switch is in
the righthand position, data in the Memory Stick can
be read, but cannot be written. When inserting a
Memory Stick into this unit in order to read data, slide
the write-protect switch to the protected state.
