The one I got would not read MS pro duo card for me. They sent another one and it won't read the card either. It will read a sd card but not MS Pro Duo. Why

I have already quit using this device (after less than a week). Everytime I used it I felt that I was going to "snap" the memory card in to pieces while inserting it. The tolerances were not what they should be. It does work, but if I ruin a memory card, at what price?


Good value, low cost, marginal design

I bought this for my camera's memory card. Low price, and you getr what you pay for. The card fits in loosely, and it's difficult to get it lined up just right so the contacts in the reader brush the contacts on the card. It's also possible to put the card in backwards and not realize it won't work. Luckily (or maybe it wasn't luck), the reader is made of clear plastic so you can see the card as you insert it and direct it properly.


Simple, Effective, and Good Value

My wife needed one of these simple multi-card readers to transfer photos on SD card to older laptop. It worked fine out of the box, no drivers needed, no problems at all.

Guide To Flash Media Cards

What Is USB 2.0?
USB 1.1 was great when it was introduced almost a decade ago.  But the newer USB 2.0 transfers data dramatically faster - up to 40 times quicker. Plus, USB 2.0 provides additional bandwidth for multimedia and storage applications, which are growing larger every year. Also to your advantage is the fact that USB 2.0 is forward and backward compatible with USB 1.1, which means that cables and connectors made for the original USB configuration will also work perfectly in a USB 2.0 port, though some newer devices are specifically designed for USB 2.0.  It is always a good idea to verify the version of USB supported by each device you want to use.
