Micro Sd Card Question

jonmchugh · 06-23-2009, 02:59 AM

Hello. I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop. The model is Toshiba Satellite A205-S5804. I just bought a new phone and I am getting a 8 gig micro SD card for my Alltel Mogul. Now, I am buying this card (http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listi...condition=used). My computer doesn't have a slot for a Micro SD Card is there any kind of adapter I can buy? Thanks, Jon

Labtop can't use that. You put it inside your phone then if you want to transfer stuff on to it...you hook the phone up to your labtop (if it has a USB adapter which most should)

Same theory as with my Sansa Fuze which has a 16GB micro SD.

If you wanted a adapter however something like this works well.

*note it comes with a 8GB micro SD*

Sure they can. I've owned several laptops with SD card readers, including the EEE I'm on now. Usually the slot is for full sized SD (not MicroSD), but all of the MicroSD cards I've ever bought come with an SD adapter.

This should do the trick, though:

You just stick it in, and it reads just like a USB flash drive.

Laptops can defintely take sd cards! all it needs is a slot and then you can find it at my computer!
