The PMP player uses an internal Hard Disk Drive to store your data.
There should be no need to format or otherwise service the drive.
iRiver recommends carefully reading the troubleshooting section of this manual
and viewing updated online documentation before attempting to format the
device. Only under recommendation from iRiver should the drive be formatted.
If attempting to format the drive in the PMP for any reason, please observe the
following precautions:
The PMP-140 can not be formatted using Windows XP or Windows 2000.
These operating systems can not format drives over 32 GB using the FAT32
file system. This is a limitation of these operating systems and not a fault of
the device itself.
The PMP-140 player can be formatted using Windows 98 SE or Windows
Me. Always choose the FAT32 file system when formatting the player.
The PMP-120 player can be formatted using Windows XP, 2000, Me, and 98

NTFS file system. This will cause the player to become unusable.
