The Storage Manager allows the user to view information about the storage devices that are
present in the 8515, such as the Compact Flash card.
5.13.1 Formatting A Memory Card
Formatting a memory card bulk-erases it. Once a card is erased, partitions may be created in
it, similarly to those on a hard drive. Memory-card devices are normally ‘mounted’ (made
available to the system) automatically when they are inserted. They must be dismounted
before they can be formatted.
To format an entire memory card:
1. Select Start> Settings>Control Panel.
2. In Control Panel, double-click on the Storage Manager icon. The Storage Manager
menu opens:
Figure 5.40 Storage Properties Menu
3. Select the memory card from the drop-down list.
4. Press the Dismount button to dismount the memory card. All partitions on the card
will be dismounted.
5. Press the Format button to format the memory card.
Warning: All partitions and information on the card will be erased during the format-
ting process.
