    Hi again,
    i have a question about storage expansion, i know that if you put an sd card the hdd will capt his capacity and increase the total capacity of the ssd/hdd but this is in linux, what about windows?
    i have windows vista and i have some "Base system device" in my hardware administrator. i dont know where drivers or what is this but i thing its the storage expansion, but its working like a sd reader... anyone know what is "base system device" and what drivers i need? or if the storage expansion could be used to increase hdd storage in windows too?

    sorry for my bad english

    PD. Base system device or system base device... = "dispositivo base del sistema"

    XP won't do this. Linux uses the unionfs (union file system) to achieve this feat but XP doesn't support unionfs (or anything like it AFAIK).

    It will just show up as an SD card, but it should be mounted automatically though.
