CFast Card Reader, USB-A 3.0 5Gbps, Multi-Card Reader for CFast 2.0, XD, SD, TF, CF – Compatible with Lexar, Transcend, Sony, Olympus XD, Fuji Cards – Read 5 Cards Simultaneously

I have owned this for over 18 months and felt it's time to leave a long term review. I would give this a 4.5 just because the cords are short, and getting a longer, high through-put cable isn't exactly cheap. But still, when you compare to other CF Express B card readers (especially back when I bought it in 2023) the value is great. I haven't had any issues with it. Read/transfer speeds are great, I get about 780 MegaBYTES/sec, which is plenty fast. (Especially compared to the fact I still have to use SD cards on my C70 and older cameras, but CF Express B are great) So if you use a camera that does 6K/8K RAW video or high-bitrate/high frame rate 60/120/180/240p etc. you'll need CF Express Type B, as some cameras have an SD slot and a CF Express B slot, but will limit your recording options with the SD Card option. NOTE: You MUST a cord that is capable of delivering this data rate. It comes with one, but if you do end up gettign a longer one, make sure it's rated at 10Gbps transfer or better. ALSO: use the correct USB port, I've seen people complain on several cords/card readers that were clearly hitting the ceiling of a USB 2.0 port, leading me to believe they were not using a higher USB port. You may have to check your motherboard manual to get a diagram on which ones are the faster ones like USB 3.2. If I recall I think this came with two cords: a USB-C to USB-C and USB-C to USB-A (traditional, square type USB plug-in). Hope this helps!

Good purchase and cheap

A great card reader. Works well and is very compact. Great for travel.

This works great and feels well made, but 40+ bucks for a card reader? I appreciate the fact that the cable is removable - I HATE the devices with permanently attached cables because they all die due to cable fatigue. I can only complain about the high cost: -1 star for value.

Left looking like a fool on set, would not be stable on the CFexpress type B, it would show up on computer then disappear, I was not able to read a card with this device. It was not my laptop as I was able to read SD cards from my other camera. - I had to borrow a card reader to finish my work for CFexpress

Excellent Product and it transfers data very fast.

I bought a Unitek that was a CFast only card reader and my primary complaint was that the interface with the card wasn't very solid or click or has friction. You'd slide it in but there wasn't really any feel to it. Every other card reader I've ever owned had some kind of friction to indicate it was connected. If that makes sense. This thing has the feel that the other reader did not. Added bonus of having ports for basically every current format.

Very useful for the myriad of data cards out there

CFast port is not working other port is working

My original review with a 1 star rating "Purchased this for a photo trip. Worked great the couple of times I tested it at home but when I got to my destination, it wouldn't read my card. Every time I tried to use this reader, it would give an error message and stall. Luckily, there was a spare available." BUT!!!! the company reached out to me and offered a refund - which I received. And they didn't stop there. They sent me a replacement at no cost to me. This one is working great! I am aware that things can go awry and apparently the company does, too. They went above and beyond and not only owned this, the SLAYED IT!!!

mi ha consentito di risolvere la lettura di diversi formati di scheda, in sostituzione a un vecchio dispositivo non funzionante, per i formati di scheda MS. Molto utile anche la possibilità di utilizzare contemporaneamente più formati diversi di scheda.

Fits all the older style memory cards, works perfect

I use it and carry it everywhere I go and shoot photo...instant review on my phone with this one...GREAT PRODUCT.
