I think putting it on the side of the card would be the best option, 
provided it's  a springy latch slot so that the card ends up flush with 
the side of the card when inserted. For external storage you can have as 
many SD slots, SATA and whatever else on the motherboard the EOMA-68 
board will plug into.
