I'm not aware of any variation whatsoever in the z505le/ls range.


Dragos? Is yours the USB mass storage one?
I explained mine was umass when this thread started...

There are at least 3 varients of the Sonly memory stick interface.

The first type sat on the 2nd IDE bus of the pciide interface.
The second type sat on the PCI bus as a unique device (no docs).
The third type is a umass usb device.

Depends what laptop you have.  Can't even use the z505xx names, since some
models changed a lot without changing xx names.
