 Great product! September 2, 2006

I've had this product for well over a year now and was using it with my XP machine and am now using it with my Apple Mac Mini. Works great with both Windows and Mac OS X, with no hassles. The removable stand is a nice touch, as you can pack the reader into a laptop bag or lay it horizontally if you prefer. Highly recommended.

I bought this card reader in Feb. 2004 to use with SD cards. Since then I have moved over to CF cards (Sandisk Ultra II's both 1 and 4 gig) and it has worked great every time.

I use this in conjunction with the SanDisk Ultra II 2.0 GB compact flash card.
I like it, but the flash card doesn't slide in easily. Sometimes it get stuck halfway, as if the unit has not been designed properly and the sliders for the card offer enough give to slide the card to the left or right of the pins.
To add insult to injury, both the reader and flash card are manufactured by SanDisk. Therefore, they SHOULD work seamlessly together, but pathetically, they don't.
I'd much rather pay more for a reader that worked great, rather than save a few dollars for a reader that makes you work every time you use the thing.
For comparison, my camera accepts the card perfectly. There is no give at all, but instead is an effortless process.
Not a quality reader.
Other than that, it works as expected. Surprisingly, the reader doesn't topple over as easily as I thought it would. It stands vertically and looks like it might fall over when trying to slide the card in. Sliding the card in a 2 handed process, so one hand holds the unit while the other slides it in.
Removing the card is extremely easy. That's a one-handed process. "Eject" the card from the PC's drive and then remove it.
Data transfer from the card to PC is very quick.
Overall, I'm glad to have it, but it's an annoyance to use it. I hate the card getting stuck halfway in the reader.
Great card reader for the price September 20, 2005

This is a great card reader for the price. Why pay more if this one reads the all cards that you have? Personally, I only use CompactFlash and SD cards. It reads these cards and it does it fast and reliably.
The shape of this card reader is a bit awkward but then again it does help you grab the unit while inserting and removing cards, which you'll want to do a bit carefully. It would be a bit more difficult to do that with the unit lying flat on the desk. Remember to never force the card in and remember the label side faces towards the Sandisk logo on the card reader. It is slightly tricky to get the cards into the slots at first, but once you get the feel of it, it beccomes quite easy and routine.
This Sandisk has LED indicators that are helpful. One Amber LED to tell you the unit is connected to your USB, and other green ones by each card slot to let you know either that you have a card insert (solid green), or that it's reading or writing (blinking green).
This card reader comes with a 1 year warranty and I feel it represents a good value. I would recommend it.
