10 using your psa for mass storage
when you connect the player to your computer via the USB port, your computer will
recognize your psa as a removable USB Mass Storage Device (MSD). The player is
detected and automatically located as a folder named Removable Disk/ Device (e.g. D
drive).
this means you can listen to your favorite music on
the move and also use your psa to conveniently
carry your work or data files such as Word docu-
ments, Powerpoint presentations, PDFs, etc.
once you have transferred the files to your compu-
ter, you can use normal file operations to e.g. copy,
delete, rename your files.
IMPORTANT!
TO PREVENT FILE CORRUPTION OR LOSS OF DATA, PLEASE DO NOT REMO-
VE THE USB CABLE DURING USB OPERATION, FILE TRANSFER, FORMAT-
TING OR WHEN UPGRADING IS IN PROGRESS.
ONLY UNPLUG YOUR PSA WHEN THE DISPLAY HAS STOPPED
SCROLLING COMPLETELY.
