SDCARD-EXT?

I love MPE except for one thing. I cannot see the external SD card in my DROID3.

Under /mnt I have sdcard and sdcard-ext

sdcard shows up fine in the file section of MPE, but not sdcard-ext

Is there some way to add this access in MPE?

I too am having a hard time determining where the SD Card shows up in MPE. Is it under Files:Memory Stick:external_sd?

Not seeing it

Using MPE on the PC, under the section labeled Files I see

Memory Stick
Phone Memory
Applications

The DROID3 comes with 16GB of memory on board and I have added an additional 32GB card.

When I look at what is mounted (using the Diskusage APP which I installed on the phone) I see something different

Part of the 16GB on board memory is mounted as /mnt/sdcard and that is what MPE sees just fine as "Memory Stick"

The additional 32GB card shows up as /mnt/sdcard-ext on the phone, but is not shown anywhere I can find in MPE on the PC.

That's what I am looking for. I want to see the additional 32GB under files on the PC.

Found it under "Phone Memory"

I finally looked in the right spot. It's just not where I expected it to be.

Looking at MPE on the PC under files I see

Memory Stick
Phone Memory
Applications

When I click on "Phone Memory" the display to the right shows a list of folders INCLUDING one called sdcard-ext !

That's what I have been looking for, I just didn't know where to look. When I click on that folder, I see the contents of the additional 32GB memory card.

Oddly, "Phone Memory" doesn't include "sdcard" but I guess that's because it shows up as "Memory Stick"


In any event, problem solved. MPE is a great tool to manage and move files from my PC to my DROID3 !

I know its not very intuitive but currently its really difficult to detect and list the storages correctly since every producer uses other paths. But i plan to create better overview with named drives: "Phone Storage", "SD Card" and "System storage"
