The MacBook Pro comes with a built-in SD card reader, so you can insert compatible SD cards and view their contents using the Media Reader. The cards must conform to SD 1.x, 2.x, and 3.x standards. MacBook Pro's SD card reader can read standard SD (up to 2GB), SDHC (up to 32GB) and SDXC (up to 2TB) cards. The card reader won't recognize any SD card that doesn't have the standard size, 32 mm by 24 mm by 2.1 mm.
1.Insert the SD card into the SD card reader, on the left side of the MacBook Pro. Mac OS X immediately recognizes the card and assigns a new drive to it.
