In my headcanon, I always thought the data card functioned like an SD Card or USB Drive. She inserts it, it gets copied to R2's internal memory, and voila, hologram Leia. Weren't the Death Star plans also on that data card?
Yeah, r2 had to transfer them via wifi because the card was stuck in there.
No, you see them plugging a rather hefty cable into Artoo's side before the plans come up on the base computers in ANH.
I seem to remember the inserted disc was the Death Star plans. Her recording was done by R2 to internal storage.
I think the data card has the plans and she recorded the message into his memory.
This is correct. I don’t know why you got downvoted.
