Hi Jamerson,
Do you mean a SD flash memory card? These are supported as boot devices as mentioned in the documentation
https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/install.html
OPNsense is based on FreeBSD, not Linux

thank you bart.
it means Secure Digital can't be used for Webproxy , freebsd wouldn't be able to writ to the Secure digital.
to use a web proxy / proxy server need a hdd on the appliance.
is this correct ?

Depends on how much I/O per second you need - for me it works (for home usage). This is an answer you will have to answer by yourself as this depends on factors like usage, amount of users (network size), content to cache etc.
