choose instead to record to removable Memory Stick Duo™ media or Memory
Stick PRO Duo™ media. You can even select from various dubbing functions to easily copy video or still images
from the hard disk drive to Memory Stick media -- without using a PC. Images recorded or transferred to Memory Stick media can then be played directly on a PS3 or PC to share your memories with friends and family.
