The data also can be exported in '.csv' format.
SxS Reader Writer Display
When multiple SxS memory cards are used through multi-slot SxS reader/writer devices (such as SBAC-UT100), 'Memory Media Utility' is capable of showing a relationship between the drive name of each SxS card displayed on PC screen and its slot position on the reader/writer. This function 'SxS Reader/Writer Display' is very useful when switching the cards.
With SxS Reader/Writer Display, 'Memory Media Utility' can display all reader/writer devices connected,* allowing the user to name each device for easier management. SxS Reader/Writer Display can also be launched as an independent tool, and it can be used in combination with other applications such as Explorer or Finder.
(* Up to six SxS reader/writer devices can be connected in a daisy chain.)

1) Stop Memory Media Utility being resident in memory.
2) Select Tool > Maintenance > Settings and cancel the 'On' option in SxS Function.
