[Closed] sansa clip zip and micro SDHC cards

ive got the above player and now want to up the storage capacity. the box tells me it can take micro sdhc, so thats what im looking at buying, a 32Gb flavoured one.
my question is.....after a bit of googling, it says these cards arent backwards compatible and only things designed for sdhc can read them. possibly a daft question, but does it mean my laptop may not recognise it when i decide to transfer songs over? or will it just see the zip as a player with all the storage available?

thanks
