The NOOK Simple Touch supports microSD and microSDHC cards with a storage capacity of up to 32GB; Class 6 cards are supported. microSD and microSDHC cards must be formatted with a FAT32 file system to be used with NOOK. This article lists the proper steps to follow when installing or removing a microSD (or microSDHC) card on NOOK Simple Touch.
