A SanDisk Secure Digital, or SD, memory card is an efficient method to store computer data. From music, pictures and other types of content, users can conveniently carry such files and share them among computers. Moreover, these storage devices are also useful to back up vital programs for later use. To copy files from a PC to these storage units, you may do so from your computer's main files management system.
Step 1
Connect the SanDisk SD memory card to your computer. Insert it to a built-in memory reader, which is most commonly found on laptops, or a third-party device. If using a device, connect the memory reader to a USB port, then insert the SD memory card into the reader's SD slot.
