It's marked Sandisk microSD HC 32GB. The only view and description of
how it's put together is at
http://www.androidcentral.com/finger-32gb-sandisk-microsd-card where one

http://www.jigsaw24.com/product-details/x946axa/sandisk-32gb-micro-sd-card
for a much clear photo.
I only have a Beagleboard -XM, no access to a Pandaboard.
Regards
Sid.
