Moving files from sdCard to flash memory in android?

I am working on an app which needs to move the files from sdcard to the flash memory .The problem is that both the flash memory and sdcard is detected by :

           (Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory())

So I cant detect whether sdcard is inserted or not . Has anyone came across the same problem please help ?

I am using Archos 7 home tablet eclair. I need to know how can I get the path for the flash memory and sdcard.

What do you mean by:

both the flash memory and sdcard is detected by:
(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory())

To detect whether the external storage is available, use:

if (Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED.equals(Environment.getExternalStorageState())) {
    // External storage is available
} else {
    // External storage is NOT available
}

You can also use Environment.isExternalStorageRemovable() (watch out, Android 2.3+ only) to check whether the device has a removable SD card or a builtin one (such as the Nexus S).

Does this solve your problem?
