😃   **Hola, Lanny** Estimado Usuario Por favor, **no es un adaptador** , tirar a la basura, **es un fraude.** _Afortunadamente,_ no pudo conectar la microSD (_3,3 voltios_), al puerto USB (_5 voltios_), con ese **adaptador falso,** porque _se habrĂ­a quemado_. AdemĂĄs, tenga en cuenta que la tarjeta microSD de 64 GB, _“tiene el protocolo **SDXC** ”_ (Capacidad Extendida, de 64 GB a 2 TB), y sĂłlo _se reconocen,_ por medio de _dispositivos que tengan su **logotipo.** _ Hay _dos maneras,_ de poner una _memory-card_ en la laptop: **1-** Por el **“Puerto-card”** de la Laptop, una tarjeta SD _va directamente_. Pero, una microSD, necesita un **“adaptador”** , de _factor de forma igual_ a la SD. Este adaptador (dispositivo _pasivo_), expande los pines de la microSD, y es como una “_SD hueca”_, (sĂłlo utlice _marcas reconocidas:_ SanDisk, Samsung, Kingston, _no genĂ©ricos, ojo_). **2-** Por el **“Puerto-USB”** de las PCs, y ahora necesitamos un **“Lector de Tarjetas”** (dispositivo _activo_), que, junto con la memory-card, _se transforma en una Pendrive,_ (sĂłlo utilice _marcas reconocidas:_ SanDisk, Kingston, Encore, _no genĂ©ricos, ojo_).

But, microSD, requires an **“adapter”** of _form factor_ _equal_ the SD. This adapter (_passive_ device), expand the pins of the microSD, and is like a _“hollow SD”_ (only use _recognized brands:_ SanDisk, Samsung, Kingston, _nongeneric, eye_). **2-** For the **“Port-USB”** PCs, and now we need a **“Card Reader”** (_active_ device), which, along with card-memory _becomes a Pendrive,_ (only use _recognized brands:_ SanDisk, Kingston, Encore, _nongeneric, eye_).
