Whenever you connect your device to the computer with the USB cable, the Connect to PC screen displays and
prompts you to choose the type of USB connection:
ActiveSync
Select this mode when you need to do the following:
Synchronize Outlook e-mail messages, contacts, calendar appointments, files, and other data between
your device and your computer.
Have read and write access to the whole device.
For more information about using ActiveSync, see Chapter 5.
Disk Drive
This mode is available for selection only when you installed a microSD card on your device. Select this mode
when you want to use your storage card as a USB thumb drive, and copy files between your device’s storage
card and your computer faster.
When Disk Drive mode is enabled while your device is connected to the computer:
You will not be able to use your device to access files from the storage card or run applications that are
installed on the storage card.
Your computer will only connect to the device’s storage card. When you access your device from the
computer, you will only see the contents of the device’s storage card.
