I'm trying to clear up some space on my computer, and I've noticed a lot of videos about SD cards for cameras. This got me thinking—are the SD cards for cameras the same as the ones I'd use for my computer? Do I need to look for specific types of SD cards that would work for both devices, or can I just grab any SD card and it will be suitable for my computer as well as a camera?

Yeah, if you have an SD card reader, you can absolutely use a camera SD card with your computer! But if you're buying something new, I’d recommend looking into USB flash drives instead since those are super convenient for extra storage.
Why not consider an external hard drive? You typically get better storage space for your money that way, plus SD cards can be tricky with fakes—like you might see a 1TB card that’s actually just 16GB. Stick to brand names from trusted places.
thanks for the tips, i really appreciate it! I'm definitely gonna be watching out for fakes.
