The module rimmptsk.sys, described as RICOH SD/MMC Driver is a driver file from the company REDC and belongs to product RICOH SD/MMC Driver. The multimedia card (MMC) is a flash memory card that is based on NAND-based flash memory and is about the size of a postage stamp. The MMC originally used a 1-bit serial interface, but newer versions allow transfers of 4 to 8 bits at a time. Secure digital (SD) card is a non-volatile memory card format for use in portable devices such as mobile phones, tablet computers, and digital camera. The MMC has been superseded by the SD card, but it can still be used with most devices that support the SD card. Devices like digital cameras from Ricoh are supported by the module rimmptsk.sys to be able to communicate with the computer system to which it is connected, and to be able to read the supported SD and MMC memory cards.
