I dual boot my CR48 with Ubuntu. It also has a 16did SSD, so space is tight. I do use an SD card for extra storage, bu some applications (like Dropbox) don't like to use an SD card. However this is basically a 2 year old prototype and it still serves me very well.

> some applications (like Dropbox) don't like to use an SD card. I'm probably just being dense, but why would an application want to know anything at all about the hardware underlying a directory? (It could probably parse /etc/mtab and make an educated guess, but why go to the trouble in the first place?)

  I don't think the parent was suggesting that Dropbox was specifically saying "this is an SD card, I will die now." More likely, it's pattern of fs access aren't ideal for an SD card.
