What is an SD card?
An SD card is a small, removable storage device that is used to store data. SD cards are most commonly used in digital cameras and camcorders to store photos and videos. However, they can also be used in other devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops.
Types of SD cards
Secure Digital, or SD, cards are used in many digital devices, including cameras, camcorders, smartphones, and tablets. They come in three different sizes—standard, mini, and micro. The size you need depends on the device you’re using it for.
Standard SD cards are the largest of the three and measure 32 by 24 by 2.1 mm (HWD). They’re commonly used in digital cameras.
Mini SD cards are half the size of a standard SD card and measure 21.5 by 20 by 1.4 mm (HWD). They’re used in some older camera models and other devices such as GPS units.
Micro SD cards are the smallest of the three and measure 15 by 11 by 1 mm (HWD). They’re used in smartphones, tablets, and some newer camera models.
How do SD cards work?
SD cards are formatted with a FAT file system for portability and compatibility with a variety of devices. They are most commonly used in digital cameras, camcorders, and portable media players to store image, video, and audio files.
SD cards are also used in smart phones, GPS devices, car stereos, and video game consoles. Some computers also have SD slots to provide additional storage or data backup.
