    SD Cards About to Get a Whole Lot Zippier (Like, 300MB a Second Zippy)

    I prefer CompactFlash cards to SD, despite the bulk, for speed and durability. (Also, I shoot with big cameras that take big cards.) SD card version 4.0 fixes the speed issue, with transfer speeds of up to 300MB a second. More »

    Toshiba 64GB SDXC Card Is Will Be the World's Largest, Fastest

    On one hand, it's great to see the SDXC standard—which theoretically tops out at 2TB—flexing its muscles a little bit. On the other, I kinda wish Toshiba wouldn't announce a record-breaking SD card six months before release. More »

    New MacBook Pros Can Boot From Their Internal SD Slot

    Aside from photo transfers and straight up storage expansion, the SD card slot in the new MacBook Pros has a single, extremely cool trick up its sleeve (slot?): it's bootable. More »

    Wii to Support SDHC, Not a Hard Drive

    During Nintendo president Satoru Iwata's GDC keynote today, the company revealed that the Wii will finally get SDHC support (that means compatibility with bigger SD cards) through an update that's available now. More »

    First SDXC Card Is The World's Fastest, Only Holds 32GB

    SDXC, the new memory card spec announced at CES, promised exciting things, storage-wise. Pretec demonstrated the first card that'll support the standard, and at a mere 32GB and 50MB/s, well, it's a step. More »

    This is What a 32GB SD Card Would Look Like if Scaled To Size...pi

    ...per bit, from a 1GB SD card. We saw the 32GB SDHC monster at CES where they were announced, but Toshiba just announced their availability in Japan for $700. There's an 8GB microSD card, and a 16GB SD card, too. It's nice to realize that all our phones and computers could one day pack their memory footprint in something the size of a postage stamp.
