Memory Stick/ Secure Digital Cards

Your LifeBook notebook supports Memory Sticks and Secure Digital (SD) cards, on which you can store and transfer data to and from a variety of digital devices.

These cards use flash memory architecture, which means they don’t need a power source to retain data.

Memory Stick is a flash memory technology that allows you to record, transfer and share digital content, such as digital pictures, movies, music, voice, and computer data and applications.

Secure Digital (SD) Cards are very similar to Memory Sticks. Like Memory Sticks, SD Cards allow portable storage among a variety of devices, such as cell phones, GPS systems, digital cameras, and PDAs. SD Cards transfer data quickly, with low battery consumption. Like the memory stick, it uses flash memory architecture.

Memory Stick and SD Cards are inserted in the Memory Stick/SD Card slot (Figure 4-5). To insert a Memory Stick or SD Card, follow these steps:
