Yes, there is an option to format the internal memory:

Settings > Initialization > Format Memory > (1) Internal Memory (2) Memory Stick (3) SD Card

However, there are four drives.

(1) Sony PRS-650
Device: /dev/sdd
Capacity: 1.6GB
Type: FAT (32-bit version)
Label: READER
Mount point: Mounted at /media/READER

(2) Sony PRS-650 MS
Device: /dev/sde
No medium detected

(3) Sony PRS-650 SD
Device: /dev/sdf
No medium detected

(4) Sony PRS-650 Launcher
Device: /dev/sdg
Capacity: 10MB
Type: FAT (16-bit version)
Label: SETTING
Mount point: Mounted at /media/SETTING

The reader seems to work perfectly.
I believe that the books are stored on the drive labelled READER.

The read-only filesystem is on the drive labelled SETTING.
The problem is that Calibre is unable to access SETTING.

I don't know whether the option Format Memory > Internal Memory formats READER, SETTING, or both.

In any case, would formatting the internal memory change the attribute from read-only to read/write?
