No you can't I tried that but windows explorer (under vista) won't allow it, do we know what the file-system is?

MTP serves it as Generic Hierarchical (0x2), but what the underlying FS is nobody knows atm (excluding Creative);
we should have a HDD-dump to know this.

Surely the vista drivers for it know the file system, as I can copy and paste my music onto the device hard disk with no problem using just windows explorer? Or is this again controlled by the firmware?

I don't think Vista can see the filesystem of an MTP device. I think it just asks the device for a list of files, asks it to read a file, etc. Its more like FTP then mounting a disk AFAIK.

Indeed, saratoga is right. Windows uses MTP/WPD to communicate with the ZVM, and this one accesses his HDD directly so it can decide which it want to be visible to the "outside".
