subject: The Latest Mini Sd Card Is Smaller But Better [print this page] The Mini SD Card is a small form factor removable and portable memory device.
It should be noted that there is no Write Protect Switch and there are no Terminal Guards. The Mini SD Card is smaller than a standard SD Card. A standard SD memory card has the following specs: Width: 24 mm, Length: 32 mm and Thickness: 2.1mm
The Mini SD card is often confused with the microSD card which is another, smaller, SD derivation. The Micro SD card may be used in Mini SD devices through use of an adapter, but Mini SD cards cannot be used in Micro SD devices since they are larger than a Micro SD slot.
Currently, storage capacity for an Mini SD Card is in the range of 2 to 4 gigabytes. Mini SD Cards have been made with storage capacities as low as 16 Megabytes, but they are most common in storage sizes from 512 MB to 2 GB. Expect the storage size to grow over the upcoming years
One of the great advantages of the Mini SD Card is that it is backward compatible with many electronic devices that use standard SD memory cards.
Mini SD cards are one of the most popular flash memory cards used primarily used in mobile phones but almost always supplied with an SD adapter so can be used in any SD designed device. SD memory cards are used for millions of products including digital cameras, MP3 players and PDA's (personal digital assistants). Using the adapter, the Mini SD Card
can easily and quickly be inserted in any device that is compatible with SD memory cards. With a Mini SD Card Adapter, you can use the card for your mobile phone and swap it with your digital camera or other device.
