Does this look flat on the side of the MBA or is it still outside of the SD slot??

it has are 0.5mm outside of the mba. Its the slit on the picture at the bottom for you to use nails to pull out the SD card. (Unlike miffy drive, that needs a paper clip to pull the SD card out). Barely noticeable

It is a slightly raised area, to allow removal, but it does not stick out anywhere near as far as a standard SD card.

The jetdrive sits flat on the side. You are not aware of the fact that you have added another flash storage device. You have to look for it.

It extends aprox 1/16 of an inch but looks perfect and has a smooth appearance and feel. If it were 100% flush it would never be removable.

Only the small flange is outside of the slot and does not present an issue such as being bent or pulled out inadvertently. Also, special tools are not required to remove the card.

Those "USB-looking" slots pictured on the side are actually on both sides of this stand and are only decorative, and, if you look at the photo with the keyboard in it, it shows right through them. The USB ports and fan USB are all in the back, rather inconveniently placed.

There is one extra pocket under the stripe can store the sd card and extra battery (is hard to see from the picture)

Yep! The pictures don't show it properly, but it has a tiny slot for MicroSD. Like a separate slot for it. I didn't know this at the time of purchase and ended up buying an MicroSD to SD adapter. But yeah, it does.

It feels a little bit hollow inside that's all. I understand why people complain about it but it hasn't been a problem for me at all. also its only on the top part of the laptop. behind the monitor. ive had it for almost a year now and its a very worth investment.

yes: back side where the camera opening is; left where the silence toggle is; bottom where the headphone jack, power & speakers are. I highly recommend this case! Looks great & not bulky. AND CHEAP!

I had the same concern but I just received mine and it does. It is a tiny whole on the right side of the machine which seems to work very well. This is an impressive machine but of course I am waiting for Windows to download 29 'important' updates.

Yes, the opening for the micro sd card is covered. There is no cutout there.

My opinion is somewhere in between. it is about 2 inches shorter than my full size ( standard Dell ) and a bit bigger than my tablet. I took a picture of the 3 side by side, but don't see where I can upload to show you.

No. It's opposite of what is shown. If I place mine in the same position as pictured, the flat side of the micro USB is up (the side with the 2 little hooks).

The card slot is in the top of the enclosure with the controls and LCD display and right next to the headband, a very protected position. In the third Amazon photo, you can see a small, flat ledge next to the headband. That's the slot housing.

Nope, I have never removed it since day one, I just leave it in with the MBA sleeping or turned off, no difference. I do not have it set to be bootable or anything like that, its just a fast solid performing data drive for stuff I use less than weekly :)

On one of the two 17" dells I've bought in the last year, one arrived with the front card reader dummy card plug loose (or popped out). As noted on the 7/6/2013 comment below, just push it in straight until it clicks- it does come out completely-check that it's right side up. My none functional "plugs" do have the notched corner and work to protect the slot until you get an SD card. It will be flush with the front edge when clicked.

Not sure what u mean. It looks flat to me. The magnet is effective the only problem is the charging port and earphone port area is too tight. U can't really plug in both jack into the opening it's on the case. I had to use scissors to cut it wider other than that it's nice and tight and fit

It's designed to fit flush into a MacBook SD slot. It won't fit properly into any other computer.

Yes the slot is wide enough to fit a standard SD card and it hangs out the side.

It won't fall out (at least for my machine), but only half of the SD will go in. And with the slightest accidentally touch the card will be disconnected from the laptop (and also consider the power cord is almost right next to the SD card slot, it's really easy to hit the card). I ended up having to get an USB/SD card adapter to stick the card in securely.
