[Hellfighter]

i am a bet lost on these three items?

[Steve]

just differnt types of card

MS is Sony Memory Stick
SM is Smart Media
MD is Microdrive i think
CF is Compact Flash

[Hellfighter]

CF/MD seeing them pins got me i was thinking they be for something like a card to plug in to a wireless item type card that plug in like a laptop has?

[Steve]

no it's for a Micro Drive, fast high capacity memory card: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microdrive

[Hellfighter]
