SD/SDHC memory card
SD/SDHC Cards let you easily transfer data from devices, such as digital
cameras and Personal Digital Assistants, that use SD/SDHC Card flash-
memory. The cards have a high level of security and copy protection
features.
Formatting an SD/SDHC Card
SD/SDHC memory cards are sold already formatted in conformity to
specific standards. If you format the SD/SDHC Card again, be sure to
format it with the TOSHIBA SD Memory Card Format utility, not with the
format command provided within Windows.
In order to run the TOSHIBA SD Memory Card Format utility, click Start ->
All Programs -> TOSHIBA -> Utilities -> SD Memory Card Format.
Please note that the TOSHIBA SD Memory Card Format utility does not
format the protected area of the SD/SDHC memory card - 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.
