Media Care - Toshiba NB500 User Manual

Memory media format
New media cards are formatted according to specific standards. If you wish
to reformat a media card, be sure to do so with a device that uses media
cards.
Formatting an SD/SDHC memory card
SD/SDHC memory cards are sold already formatted in conformity to
specific standards. If you reformat an SD/SDHC memory card, be sure to
reformat it with a device such as digital camera or digital audio player that
uses the SD/SDHC memory cards, not with the format command provided
within Windows.
Should you need to format all areas of the memory card, including the
protected area, you will need to obtain an appropriate application that
applies the copy protection system.
