# PX4 SD Card Layout
The PX4 SD Card is used for storing configuration files, flight logs, mission information etc.
:::tip
The SD card should be FAT32 formatted for use with PX4 (this is the default for SD cards).
We recommend that you reformat cards that are using a different file system.
:::
The directory structure/layout is shown below.
| Directory/File(s) | Description |
| ----------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `/etc/` | Extra config. See [System Startup > Replacing the System Startup][replace system start]. |
| `/log/` | Full [flight logs](../dev_log/logging.md) |
| `/mission_log/` | Reduced flight logs |
| `/fw/` | [DroneCAN](../dronecan/index.md) firmware |
| `/uavcan.db/` | DroneCAN DNA server DB + logs |
| `/params` | Parameters (if not in FRAM/FLASH) |
| `/dataman` | Mission storage file |
