About Memory Stick Media
Memory Stick ® media are a compact, portable, and versatile data storage
media designed for exchanging and sharing digital data with compatible
devices. The following types of Memory Stick
® media are available, but
compatibility with your computer can vary.
• MagicGate™ Memory Stick ® Media - Provides copyright protection with
authentication and encryption, using Sony ® MagicGate technology.
Authentication ensures that protected content is only transferred between
compliant devices and media. Protected content can be recorded and
transferred in an encrypted format that prevents unauthorized duplication
or playback. You can store different data formats on a single Memory Stick
media.
• Memory Stick Pro™ media - Provides MagicGate copyright protection
and high-speed data transfer features when used with compatible Memory
Stick PRO devices. VAIO
® computers support Memory Stick PRO media
for data storage purposes only. High-speed data transfer and MagicGate
technology features, such as authentication and encryption, may not be
available. You can store different data formats on a single Memory Stick
media.
• Memory Stick Pro Duo™ media - Provides the same features and
benefits of Memory Stick PRO™ media, in a form that is 1/3 smaller in
size.
• Memory Stick ® media - Provides data storage only. The Memory Stick
media does not provide MagicGate technology or high-speed data
transfer. You can store different data formats on a single Memory Stick
media.
• Memory Stick Duo™ media - Provides the same features and benefits of
MagicGate™ Memory Stick media, in a form that is 1/3 smaller in size.
Compatibility between software programs and Memory Stick ® media formats
may vary. At this time, Sony suggests using only MagicGate Memory Stick
media to store and transfer any data created with SonicStage
® software.
