You need not to be confused because SD stores upto 1-2GB of data and even 4GB, SDHC stores data from 4GB to 32GB whereas, SDXC stores greater than 32GB and upto 2TB.

Good day Roger,

What a good question you have there buddy,

SD, SDHC and SDXC are all non-volatile memory card used in different portable gadgets like cellphones, tablet computers, etc.

SD - stands for  Secure Digital has three physical sizes available namely :  Standard size, Mini size and Micro size

SDHC - stands for Secure Digital High Capacity, this type of memory can support up to 32GB.

SDXC -  stands for Secure Digital Extended Capacity, this type of memory can support up to 2TB.

to sum it all up, MEMORY CAPACITY is the primary differences of all these three.

Hope I helped you,

Take care!
