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.

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. 

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.

Note

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