It\u2019s mainly used in mobile phones, handheld gadgets, and digital cameras. <a href=\"https:\/\/simple.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/MicroSD\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">MiniSD<\/a> cards are quite smaller than regular SD cards; they measure 21.6 X 20 X1.40 mm and the newer models can hold data up to 2GB. Generally, the first MiniSD cards had a data storage capacity of between 16MB to 256MB.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8189\" src=\"\/howto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/what-is-mini-sd.png\" alt=\"what is mini sd\" width=\"740\" height=\"547\" \/>\r\n\r\n<p>Nowadays, MiniSD cards are not so popularly used due to their low data storage capacity. Most electronic devices such as cell phones, tablets, music players and smartphones have adapted to Micro SD cards that are a bit bigger in size with data storage capacity of up to 128GB. MiniSD cards can be connected with PC using a MiniSD card reader or via another device that can connect to PC through a USB connection.<\/p>\r\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"data_recovery_on_minisd_cards\"><\/span><strong>Data recovery on MiniSD cards<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n<p>MiniSD cards can sometimes lose image files and precious data through accidental deletion, bad file formatting, corruption and hardware damage. If you have a MiniSD card that has lost some data, don\u2019t write any new content to the card. Remove the card from your device and download a MiniSD recovery software.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Disk Drill is a data recovery software that can be used to recover deleted files on a MiniSD card. The software is quite easy to use and comes with an easy illustration guide that will help you perform the data recovery process on your MiniSD card successfully.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7321\" src=\"\/howto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/ddMacComicsPromo.jpg\" alt=\"recover deleted files on a MiniSD \" width=\"640\" height=\"526\" \/>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"relative bottom download__block\">\r\n            <div class=\"d-flex align-center download__block__inner\">\r\n                <div class=\"download__block__image-wrapper\">\r\n                <div class=\"download__block__image\">\r\n                    <img src=\"\/howto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/sidebar-ban-96.png\" srcset=\"\/howto\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/sidebar-ban-2x-1.png 2x\" alt=\"Disk Drill\" width=\"96\" height=\"96\">        \r\n                <\/div>\r\n                <\/div>\r\n                <div class=\"download__block__announce\">\r\n                    <b>download-block-title<\/b><br>\r\n                    download-block-text\r\n                <\/div>\r\n                <div class=\"download__block__action\">\r\n                    <a href=\"\/\/download.html\" data-href-mac=\/\/disk-drill-mac.html data-href-win=\/\/disk-drill-win.html class=\"button button-green btn-md osreplace\">\r\n<svg width=\"16\" height=\"16\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\r\n<path d=\"M11.9546 7.293C11.8736 7.114 11.6956 7 11.4996 7H9.49957V0.5C9.49957 0.224 9.27557 0 8.99957 0H6.99957C6.72357 0 6.49957 0.224 6.49957 0.5V7H4.49957C4.30357 7 4.12557 7.115 4.04457 7.293C3.96257 7.472 3.99457 7.681 4.12357 7.829L7.62357 11.829C7.71857 11.938 7.85557 12 7.99957 12C8.14357 12 8.28057 11.937 8.37557 11.829L11.8756 7.829C12.0056 7.682 12.0356 7.472 11.9546 7.293Z\" fill=\"white\"\/>\r\n<path d=\"M13.5 11V14H2.5V11H0.5V15C0.5 15.553 0.948 16 1.5 16H14.5C15.053 16 15.5 15.553 15.5 15V11H13.5Z\" fill=\"white\"\/>\r\n<\/svg>\r\ndownload-block-button-text\r\n<\/a>\r\n                <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n\r\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"step_by_step_on_how_to_recover_deleted_files_on_a_minisd_card_with_disk_drill\"><\/span><strong>Step By Step on how to recover deleted files on a MiniSD card with Disk Drill<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><br\/>\r\n<ol>\r\n<li>To recover MiniSD card files, download Disk Drill MiniSD Card Data Recovery Software to your PC.
