You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 34.205.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:44, 30 September 2026.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

A '''memory card reader''' is a device for accessing the data on a [[memory card]] such as a [[CompactFlash]] (CF), [[Secure Digital card|Secure Digital]] (SD) or [[MultiMediaCard]] (MMC). Most card readers also offer write capability, and together with the card, this can function as a [[pen drive]].

Some [[Computer printer|printers]] and [[Smartphone]]s have a built-in card reader, as do many [[laptop]]s and the majority of [[Tablet computer]]s.

A multi card reader is used for communication with more than one type of flash [[memory card]].  Multi card readers do not have built-in memory capacity, but are able to accept multiple types and styles of memory cards.

Memory card readers, unlike smartphones, telephones and other devices, such as cameras and digital cameras, allow formatting in a file system other than FAT (FAT16, FAT32, exFAT) to NTFS in Windows, ext, ext2, ext3 in Linux or HFS, HFS + for Mac OS. Smartphones or other devices like cameras format them only in FAT. Internal card readers are usually connected to internal USB 1.1 / 2.0 / 3.x ports

The number of compatible memory cards varies from reader to reader and can include more than 20 different types. The number of different memory cards that a multi card reader can accept is expressed as x-in-1, with x being a [[figure of merit]] indicating the number of memory cards accepted, such as 35-in-1. There are three categories of card readers sorted by the type and quantity of the card slots: single card reader (e.g. 1x SD-only), multi card reader (e.g. 9-in-1) and series card reader (e.g. 4x SD-only).

Some kinds of memory cards with their own USB functions do not need the card reader, such as the Intelligent Stick memory card, which can plug directly into a USB slot.

The [[Universal Serial Bus#Device classes|USB device class]] used is ((mono|0x08)).

Modern UDMA-7 CompactFlash Cards and UHS-I Secure Digital cards provide data rates in excess of 89 [[Megabyte|MB]]/[[second|s]] and up to 145 MB/s,<ref>((Cite web |url=http://pietrzyk.us/media-card-study/ |title=UDMA-7/UHS-1 Media Card Study &#124; pietrzyk.us |access-date=2013-11-24 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170211080838/http://pietrzyk.us/media-card-study/ |archive-date=2017-02-11 |url-status=dead ))</ref> when used with memory card readers capable of USB 3.0 data transfer rates.<ref>((Cite web |url=http://pietrzyk.us/usb-3-0-cf-card-reader-study/ |title=USB 3.0 CF Card Reader Study &#124; pietrzyk.us |access-date=2013-11-24 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161229054617/http://pietrzyk.us/usb-3-0-cf-card-reader-study/ |archive-date=2016-12-29 |url-status=dead ))</ref> As of 2011, Secure Digital memory cards received an additional option of a UHS-II bus interface.
