Memory Stick/
Secure Digital Slot
Your LifeBook notebook supports Memory Stick 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 developed
by Sony Electronics. Memory Stick 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, but they are shorter. Like the Memory Stick, 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.
