Summary: Problems
Comment: Nice looking hub, when working it functions very well...reads my sd card at lightning speeds! Very Impressed with that side of it, however! Every time I turn my computer off..when I turn it back on again it some how goes off line! Got to pull the plug out and re insert it for computer to recognise it again...very annoying!

Summary: Mac users beware
Comment: Using this on my Mac (G5 tower), I found that the connection would occasionally degrade to USB 1.1, making card imports painfully slow. Worse, within the last month, the unit has been unexpectedly dropping the connection for a few seconds at random, causing my keyboard and mouse to temporarily become unresponsive, and cards and connected USB devices to unexpectedly dismount. This behaviour has culminated in complete system crashes on several occasions.

I have now dumped this device and will be replacing it with a USB hub and separate card reader--from a different manufacturer, naturally.

Summary: Use with Vista
Comment: Not sure whether it is Vista causing the problem but be careful that this device is not left plugged into the mains as it may cause you not to be able to switch on your PC from cold. Switch it on later

Summary: Card limits
Comment: I have owned one of these for a number of years and the biggest card in it to date has been a 1gb compact flash.I have now upgraded my camera and have been trying to get it to read a 2gb sandisk extreme 3 SD tonight to no avail,thought it must be the extreme 3 bit causing the trouble as it has more contacts on it but after reading the reviews on here i realise its the size of card causing the problem! I have been happy with the reader up until now though,it makes no difference if you upgrade the driver.This is an odd problem because the USB ports work fine with a corsair GT 4 gb flash drive.

Customer Rating: Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5
Summary: Slick and works fine with cards above 1GB
Comment: I can't fault this media reader. It's fast, supports XD cards which is a bonus and I've had no problems with 4GB compact flash cards at all. Its slick, small and looks good. Highly recommended.
