Managing expansion cards

When writing data to an expansion card, wait for your handheld to complete
the operation before removing the card from the slot. This prevents data
corruption or accidental damage to the expansion card.

You can install applications to an expansion card after performing an initial
HotSync

®

operation. See

“Installing files and add-on applications”

in

Chapter 4

for information. For optimal performance, we recommend that you do not
install more than 50 applications to a single expansion card.

Reading and writing information on an expansion card uses more battery
power than performing the same task on your handheld. If you have ample
storage space on your handheld, consider copying the information to your
handheld.

NOTE

You must store and access MP3

TM

files from an expansion card.

When your handheld’s battery level becomes very low, access to the expansion
card may be disabled to protect your data. If this occurs, recharge your
handheld as soon as possible.
