Matrix for device compatibility and software identification
Use this matrix to determine if a particular format can be used with a particular device and what software should be used. Find the device in the
left-hand column and the format across the top. The point where the two intersect will tell you if the format does not work with that device
(“X”) or what software to use. Anything indicated in red and italics has to be transferred
