While known worldwide for its high-end televisions and other consumer electronic components, Toshiba is one of the worlds largest manufacturers of memory for computers and a host of other electronic devices. A little known fact is Toshiba is one of the inventors of the SD (Secure Digital) memory card used in many digital cameras. I'm happy to be carrying Toshiba SD and CF cards on my journey thanks to the support of TAEC.
