Weird chip thingy =P


Question Posted Thursday October 4 2007, 3:06 pm

Well when I was walking home from school today I found this chip thingy on the ground. It's blue and on the front it say San Disk and 1.0 GB. Is it some kind of computer memory card chip? If it is how can I use it? Will it be useful to me? And can it like help with computer gaming like reduce lag?

As others say, it's a memory card. You can buy a memory card reader and use it a bit like a flash drive, though you'll need to have the reader to use it. You can store anything on it, not just pictures.

And don't buy electronics at wallmart. You'll regret it.

oh, it's a camera memory card! that's a cool thing to find. and the 1 gb ones are pretty expensive. if you have a digital camera, or if somebody else does, stick it in there and see if it has any pictures on it. it's used to store pictures on a camera, so i doubt it could be used with computer gaming. some new computers and laptops have a spot on them where you can put in memory cards from cameras, so you might try that too. you can store documents on it if you really need to- in all essence, it's like a removable storage disk or flash drive. pretty cool thing to find.

Yeah its probably a camera memory card. You won't be able to use it in your computer. But if you want to reduce gaming lag, just buy a video card at Walmart for ehhh, about 50-90 dollars. :)

That is a memory card. Most likely for a camera. It stores pictures, and I don't think anything else. I'm not sure if you would be able to put it to use unless you have a digital camera.
