    Hello all

    I've an SD card slot on my netbook and want to use a Micro SD card to expand the storage. Is there a smaller variant of the typical SD card Adapter which won't protrude out the side of my device?

    Thanks in advance!

    @Renzakuken there is, but it doesn't hold inside some SD readers, you may need to remove the spring to use it in that case.

    They're typically designed for specific systems like the MacBook Air/Pro or Dell XPS 9550 as with this one. You could always order one and return it if it doesn't work the way you want.

    I have to add that adapter I linked costs ~$1. They come in different colors, sometimes with a handle that is quite easy to remove - yet the basic design remains the same.
