“Free Storage Space”
displays the amount of free space on the hard drive.
Note: reported number of gigabytes is binary-based counting (1KB=1024
bytes). Thus each reported Gb represents approximately 1.07 gigabytes (deci-
mal). Formatting also takes up space.
“USB preference” (for advanced users)
Your preferred connection mode will be used every time you connect the
ARCHOS to a computer. The connection mode determines how your device inter-
acts with your computer:
Mode 1: “Windows Media Device”: Recommended for users of
Windows Media®
Player (WMP) version 10 or higher
. When set to this mode, the ARCHOS uses the
Media Transfer Protocol (MTP). It allows you to charge your ARCHOS and transfer
les onto it at the same time.
Your ARCHOS will be locked only when it is opened
in Windows® Explorer.
You will be able to synchronize your media library auto-
matically every time you connect your ARCHOS to your computer. When your
le transfer is nished, simply unplug the cable from the ARCHOS, and your de-
vice will update the ARCLibrary (Music/Photo libraries).
Mode 2: “PC Hard Drive”: Recommended for users of Windows® XP with Windows
Media® Player 9, Windows® 2000, Me, Mac® OS X or Linux. The ARCHOS will ask
you if you want to charge it or connect it as a mass storage device (Hard Drive).
Choose to connect it as a mass storage device (external hard drive). When con-
nected to your computer, your ARCHOS will be locked. Disconnection: when the le
transfer is over, safely unmount the ARCHOS (See:
Disconnecting
) and your device
will do a quick ARCLibrary update (Music/Photo libraries). May not index all les.
Mode 3: “PC Hard Drive (auto-ARCLib)”: Same as mode 2, but with a full
ARCLibrary update (Music/Photo libraries) at disconnection.
