Memory Stick
Features Common to Memory Sticks
Compact and Easy to Use
Memory Stick has been designed for easy handling and portability.
Similar in appearance to a stick of gum, its length is about the same as that
of an AA battery used in small portable devices such as headphone players. The
shape of Memory Stick is ergonomically designed for easy handling. And, unlike
other flash memory cards, it is easy to distinguish the front from the back
and the top from the bottom of a Memory Stick to prevent misuse or accidental
loss of data. Its small size also allows development of compatible products
that are compact and portable.By attaching an adaptor, the compact Memory Stick
Duo media designed especially for mobile products becomes the same size as a
standard Memory Stick.
High Reliability
Memory Stick is designed to be highly resistant to shock and vibration due
to its solid-state construction with no moving parts. The connector unit and
pins have special features that provide reliability as described below. The
shape of Memory Stick makes it easy to insert into products and ensures highly
reliable exchange of data
Fewer Connector Pins for Higher Reliability
Memory Stick has only 10 pins with longer lengths to ensure more reliable
exchange of data.
The unique guide grooves prevent the user from touching the connector pins
thus avoiding damage to the chip caused by dirt or static electricity.
Thanks to the slanted guide grooves, dust is automatically removed when
a Memory Stick is inserted into the slot.
Ensure Prevention Switch
By simply sliding the erasure prevention switch on the back of each Memory
Stick, users can prevent accidental loss of important content and data.
* The erasure prevention switch is not a standard feature on all Memory Stick
PRO Duo and Memory Stick Duo (MagicGate/High-Speed Data Transfer Compatible)
media.
Content Versatility
Memory Stick Application formats are specified to allow seamless sharing
and exchange of data among compatible products of different manufacturers. When
recording data to a Memory Stick media using a compatible device, a folder is
automatically created in accordance with the data type and format. That's why
various types of digital content can be stored on a single media, without the
user having to pay attention to file format or folder structure.
As Memory Stick applications expand to a wider variety of areas, automatically
recordable data categories are also increasing. They are recorded so as not
to affect the data already stored on the media.
* Data recording/playback that requires MagicGate functions cannot be performed
in MagicGate incompatible products.
* Memory Stick media consists of an area for managing data and an area for storing
user data. Usable capacity is approx. 123MB in the case of the MSH-128. For
more details, refer to the information provided by individual media manufacturers.
* Availability varies in different markets.
