Other Points to Note
Media formatting
Do not format (initialize) memory cards with
a computer. If you format a memory card
with a computer, devices such as digital
cameras and mobile phone may not be able to
use it due to differences in format type (FAT
size, cluster size, hard disk type, or super
floppy disk type). If you use a digital camera,
format memory cards with your camera,
instead.
Restrictions on DOS mode
In Windows, the reader/ writer does not
operate in DOS mode.
