SD Cards
 SD cards are based on the older MultiMediaCard (MMC) format, although SD cards have a number of differences:
- SD cards are asymmetrically shaped so that they cannot be inserted upside down, whereas an MMC card will go in most of the way but not make contact if inverted.
- Most SD cards are physically thicker than MMC cards. SD cards generally measure 32 mm × 24 mm × 2.1 mm, but can be as thin as 1.4 mm, just like MMC cards (see below).
- The contacts are recessed beneath the surface of the card (like Memory Stick cards), protecting the contacts from contact with the fingers
- Most offer a write-protect tab on the side. This is not a switch, and it is up to the device into which the card is plugged to sense the absence of the tab from the front of the notch and protect the card from writes.
- SD cards typically have higher data transfer rates, but this is always changing, particularly in light of recent improvements to the MMC standard.
- Digital rights management features or SD cards are available but are seldom used.
Adapters
Devices with SD card slots can use the thinner MMC cards, but the standard SD cards will not fit into the thinner MMC slots. SD cards can be used in CompactFlash or PC Card slots with adapters. mini SD cards and micro SD cards can be used directly in SD card slots with physical interface adapters. There are some SD cards with a USB connector for dual-purpose use, and there are card readers which allow SD cards to be accessed via many connectivity ports such as USB , FireWire , and the common parallel port. SD cards can also be accessed via a floppy disk drive with FlashPath adapters.
A recent development is SD cards with built-in USB plugs, to eliminate the need for an SD/USB adapter or SD card slot on a PC, though at higher initial cost. One design marketed by SanDisk features a folding flap to expose the plug. Although SanDisk was not the first to market USB enabled SD cards, the move did encourage other manufacturers to follow suit. You can find USB enabled SD Cards here.
