If your computer isnt Micro SDHC card compatible, how can it read them?

Question

If your computer isnt Micro SDHC card compatible, how can it read them? I heard that if you buy a micro SDHC card & a SDHC reader

http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-USB2-0-SDHC-MICRO-SD-MINI-MULTI-CARD-READER-ADAPTER_W0QQitemZ160260422949QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item160260422949&_trksid=p3286.m14.l1318

^ Example of a Card Reader I would buy ^

Even if your computer isnt compatible you can still transfer media, and documents to it?

Thanks, I just dont want to waste money on eBay and not be able to return any of it.

Thanks

Answer 1

It's the reader you need to worry about. Since the reader is SDHC compatible, you'll be able to use the SDHC card. Example:

I have a Kodak digital camera, and it's SDHC comaptible. So, when I plug the camera into my computer, I can use my 4gig SDHC card. It's the camera that interfaces the SDCH card, so it's the camera that needs to be SDHC compatible. The computer doesn't really care one way or another.



Oh, and I got the SDHC card from eBay. I can give you the name of the seller, he sells for very reasonable prices. $25 for a Sandisk brand 4 gigabyte MicroSD card.

Answer 2

Why buy from ebay ? Head over to your local Staples/Circuit City/Best Buy/Office Max and get an external usb media card reader. Bring the card you want to use to store with you.

Answer 3

I use Sandisk MicroMate Reader...
