Page 3-4 Memory and Data Storage
Program and Data Storage Options
The Allegro CE has two options for storing programs and data:
internal non-volatile data storage and a PC card slot for memory
cards.

▲ Storage Designations
Double-tap on My Computer. The data storage options are designated
as follows:
Folder Type of Storage
C_Drive Internal non-volatile data storage
Storage Card PC Card
(shown only if a
card is installed)
My Document RAM
Program Files RAM
We recommend you use the internal non-volatile data storage as your
primary storage area. This is because the information is retained
without power. (ATA Flash and Compact Flash cards are also non-
volatile.)

▲ Internal Non-Volatile Data Storage
The Allegro CE has a solid state storage drive used to store programs
and data. It can be read from and written to just like the hard drive on
a PC. The solid state internal storage is non-volatile so information
stored on it is retained even when no power is supplied to the
Allegro. The solid state storage is an internal drive and is not user
accessible.

▲ PC Cards
The Allegro CE has a user-accessible PC card slot (PCMCIA 2.0 Type
II) that allows you to add mass data storage to your Allegro with PC
cards.
