Newbie dumb question on BIS

[gtech]

Just got my X51V and lovely it is, but, normally I am used to the HP which clearly identifies its storage area when viewing it from the AS explorer.

However, on the X51V all I can see is

My CF Card and SD Card

I am aware that this device has 256mb Storage, but what is it labelled as ????


Thanks

Well, it will appear as your device. WM5 doesn't use BIS in the same way that WM2003se and earlier devices; your programs are installed to BIS, which is mirrored in RAM when the program is run. It's more like a PC now; RAM only carries the programs and files which are active, and BIS acts like the primary partition of your Hard Drive. This also means that power loss and full-power-off won't result in loss of your files, settings, and programs, a nice little feature.
