CARD READER

SD (Secure Digital) cards are used in a wide selection of digital cameras, tablets, media players and cellular phones.

Inserting an SD card

1. Align the card so that the connector points towards the port, with the connectors facing down.

2. Carefully slide the card into the port. If you find you need to use any force to insert the card, try reorientating the card slightly.

3. Push the card until it clicks into place. A few millimetres of the card will extend from beyond the slot.

If the card contains some files, the Windows AutoPlay window may appear (this depends on the contents of the card) and ask you if you wish to use a program to access the contents of the card.

Important

When removing an SD card, you should right-click on the USB icon in the Windows task bar and select "Eject <card name>" to tell the operating system to stop using the device before removing it. Failure to do this may result in data loss or damage to your peripheral.

SD, SDHC and SDXC cards

Different types of SD cards cover different capacities, while using the same overall design. SD cards contain up to 4 GB; SDHC cards contain up to 32 GB; and SDXC cards can contain up to 2048 GB

(2 TB). Your computer provides an SDHC or SDXC compatible card reader.

Note

SDXC memory cards can only be used in an SDXC-compatible reader; SD and SDHC cards can be used in either type.
