I have no personal experience with that particular model but as a general
rule, non-professional MD units would transfer from MD to PC via TOSLINK
only
if the MD was recorded via analog input: mic, line-in, etc.
The manual is available on minidisc.org, if you want to check it out.
Look
for the section on serial copy management system restrictions.

The RH1 will transfer almost anything to PC via USB.
