“Memory Stick”
What is a “Memory Stick”?
“Memory Stick” is a compact, portable and versatile Integrated Circuit recording medium with a data
capacity that exceeds a floppy disk. “Memory Stick” is specially designed for exchanging and sharing
digital data among “Memory Stick” compatible products. Because it is removable, the “Memory Stick”
can also be used for external data storage.
“Memory Stick” is available in two sizes: standard size and compact “Memory Stick Duo” size. Once
attached to a Memory Stick Duo adapter, “Memory Stick Duo” is physically the same size as standard
“Memory Stick” and thus can be used with products compliant with standard “Memory Stick.”
Types of “Memory Stick”
“Memory Stick” is available in the following three types to meet various requirements in functions.
• “Memory Stick”
Stores any type of data except copyright-protected data that requires the MagicGate copyright
protection technology.
• “MagicGate Memory Stick”
Equipped with the MagicGate copyright protection technology.
• “Memory Stick-ROM”
Stores pre-recorded, read-only data. You cannot record on “Memory Stick-ROM” or erase the pre-
recorded data.
Types of “Memory Stick” compatible with the device
You can use three types of “Memory Stick”: general “Memory Stick,” “MagicGate Memory Stick” and
“Memory Stick-ROM” with your TV. However, because your TV does not support the MagicGate
standards, data displayed with your TV is not subjected to MagicGate copy protection.
Notes on Memory Stick Duo
To use “Memory Stick Duo” with this unit, attach it to the Memory Stick Duo adapter before inserting it
into the unit.
Make sure that you attach “Memory Stick Duo” to the adapter correctly.
Make sure that you insert the Memory Stick Duo adapter correctly, otherwise the unit may be damaged.
Do not insert the Memory Stick Duo adapter without “Memory Stick Duo” attached. Doing so may result
