This page is concerned with memory devices and drives that may be used with PDAs running embedded Linux.

The Zaurus can use Secure Digital (SD) and Compact Flash (CF) type memory cards. Multimedia Card (MMC) type devices have the same form factor as SD so can also be used.

Not all cards are 100% compatible, see the [[SD And CF FAQ]].

Big box Zaurus clamshell models can use their USB ports in host mode and therefore can control USB hard disks, CDROM, DVD drives, etc.
