What is "Memory Stick"?
"Memory Stick" is a compact-size IC
recording medium with a large capacity. It
has been designed not only for exchanging/
sharing digital data among "Memory Stick"
compliant products, but also for serving as an
insertable/removable external storage
medium that can save data.

already written, all the data will be erased.
Please be cautious not to mistakenly erase

• Please make sure to format (initialize) a
