Is that normal? or I need to set something to access SD card from USB cable?
When your eDGe is connected with your PC: slide down the notificationbar. Tap "USB connected". You'll see the screen with the green Android. Tap "Turn on USB storage" at the bottom of the screen. Now you should be able to access your eDGe including the SD-card. Be sure to disconnect the eDGe (on your pc) and "turn off USB-storage" (on your eDGe) when you're done.

However, I hardly ever use this method: I always have a USB-stick in my pocket, so I can quickly copy a file wherever I am from a device (if allowed, of course) and move it to my eDGe.
BTW, I have the EE with library on SD-card.

Hope this helps you.
