A memory card is a removable data storage medium. They are frequently used in a device to store non essential data - a PSP's internal settings and firmware are stored on chips inside the console, but any saved games, music and such will be stored on the memory card.

A 'Memory Stick' is a brand name for the memory cards used by Sony devices.
