The Mac Mini's SD card slot can work with microSD and miniSD cards, but the cards must be placed inside of an adapter. MicroSD and miniSD cards often include a full-sized SD reader adapter that looks just like a full-sized card but features a connection slot for the smaller card. Beyond just the new ProGrade Digital MICRO SDXC UHS-II cards being announced today (which are probably going to satisfy mobile and video shooters more) there are also new card readers.
Apple just loooooooves taking ports away. First it was the headphone jack on iPhones, and then Apple followed that up by removing every port from the MacBook Pro and replacing them with USB-C ports. Thin laptops are great… but being able to connect things to them is better. Earlier this week we told you about an awesome hub that adds all of the missing ports back to the MacBook Pro or any other USB-C laptop, but not everyone needs something that robust. If all you really miss is your old SD card slow, check out the Anker 2-in-1 USB-C Memory Card Reader. It’s a tiny adapter that adds an SD card slot and a microSD card slot to any laptop with a USB-C port, and it’s only $9.99 on Amazon if you use the coupon code ANKER837 at checkout.
