Hi, In the products specifications says "1 microSD card reader", without any other information. How do I know which kind of microSD and what capacity is it able to read?

@AlejandroDC This "RTS525A" is just the name of the driver for the card reader, not the product itself as it doesn't offer any information on its specifications, that said, here's the detailed description of your memory card reader from the HP maintenance and service guide:
● HP Multi-Format Digital microSD Memory Card Reader,
● SIM slot: Micro Secure Digital (SD) flash memory slot with push-push technology and Nano Sim combo tray
Should support:
Supported cards CompactFlash (I & II, UDMA), Secure Digital (SD, SDHC, SDXC, Mini SD*), and Memory Stick (MS, MS Pro, MS Duo, MS Pro Duo, MS Pro HG, M2) cards, microSDHC, microSD.

The exact model is 13t-ap0000 (custom assembled).
By looking at the Windows devices and Linux lspci output, I have identified that the card is a Realtek PCI Express Card Reader RTS525A, however, I cannot find the specs of that card anywhere.
