From what I can tell it can only take compact flash only

Added (1). In that case where the hell is it? I can't find the slot for it

According to the manual, It does NOT use SDHC memory cards… Http://www.nikonusa.com/pdf/manuals/dslr/D300_en.pdf (page 409)… Media: Type I and II CompactFlash memory cards (UDMA compliant); microdrives.

Microdrives are NOT SD/SDHC. They are unreliable mini hard drives that are prone to failure that fit into the CF slot

My Canon takes both CF and SDHC cards and the slots are right next to each other.

No. An SD slot was introduced on the D300s.

The D300 is a serious camera, not at all suited for beginners, might wanna exchange it.
