About Recording and Data Storage Media Handling CD or DVD media Do not touch the surface of the disc. Do not drop or bend the disc. Do not use adhesive labels to identify the disc. The label may come off while the disc is in use in the optical drive and damage the drive. DualDisc Considerations Your computer is designed to play back discs that conform to the Compact Disc Digital Audio standard specifications (CD Standard). A DualDisc is a two sided disc product which combines DVD recording material on one side with digital audio material on the other side. Please be aware that the audio side (non-DVD side) of the DualDisc may not play on the computer because it does not conform to the CD Standard. Cleaning CD or DVD media Fingerprints and dust on the surface of a disc may cause read and write errors. Proper care of the disc is essential to maintain its integrity. Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners or anti- static spray, as they may cause damage to the disc. For normal cleaning, hold the disc by its edge and use a soft cloth to wipe the surface from the center out. If the disc is badly soiled, moisten a soft cloth with water, wring it out well, and use it to wipe the surface of the disc from the center out. Wipe off any remaining moisture with a dry soft cloth. Using Memory Stick media MagicGate Memory Stick and Memory Stick PRO media are the only media that support MagicGate technology. Currently, Sony® SonicStage and OpenMG software are not compatible with the new Memory Stick PRO media. Sony suggests using only the MagicGate Memory Stick media to store and transfer any data created with SonicStage and OpenMG software. VAIO® computers may not support all of the high-speed data transfer or access control features of the new Memory Stick PRO media. You can use the new Memory Stick PRO media as you would use a standard Memory Stick® media. Visit the Sony online support Web site at http://www.sony.com/pcsupport regularly for the latest information on the new Memory Stick PRO media. Using memory cards Certain VAIO® computers support CompactFlash®, MultiMediaCard (MMC), Microdrive , SmartMedia , xD-PictureCards and Secure Digital (SD) memory cards.

Visit the Sony online support Web site regularly for the latest information on compatible memory cards. Always insert the correct memory card into the appropriate memory card reader. Do not attempt to insert a different memory card or memory card adapter into a different memory card reader. An incompatible memory card or adapter may be difficult to remove from the wrong reader and can cause damage your computer. Use care when inserting or removing a memory card from the reader. Do not force the memory card in or out of the reader. Handling floppy disks1 Do not open the shutter manually and touch the surface of the floppy disk. Keep floppy disks away from magnets.
