75 in 1 Multi Flash Media Card Reader/Writer(with Power Cord) (CRW-UINB)

Installed this in an old Dell Vostro. Works perfect, no setup needed.

NOTE: To disable the power light when computer is off you must go into BIOS and ENABLE ErP Support. This may be called something similar like EUP--which again you would ENABLE. Some BIOS may have something like "USB Charge Technology"--which you would want to DISABLE. Also disable wake by mouse, wake by keyboard, wake by LAN and similar. REVIEW: I'm fond of the Sabrent brand, having used a number of their products over the years with positive results. I physically tested the usb, memory stick, sd card, and micro sd card slots and all worked. In addition, BIOS recognized and reported all adapters, and even allows me to boot from them if I choose. This product is compatible with the StarTech 3.5 to 5.25 bay adapter. You will need longer screws than what's provided. It has motherboard thread pitch--the standard mobo screws with the larger hexagonal/philips head will work. Even then they're juuuust long enough. [The StarTech adapter comes with a grab bag of different screws you can use.] Some say with the StarTech bay adapter you get a little gap, and while that's true if your eye is three inches away generally it is not noticeable--this coming from someone very OCD about these things. The other complaint I've seen is a microSD slot that goes bad. In general, microSD slots are fragile and so this doesn't surprise me. When they fail it generally comes down to user error vs a fault in the port. For mSD I'll continue to use my mSD to SD adapter, and only use the native microSD slot if the adapter breaks or goes missing. The power LED is extraordinarily bright, as others have said. I applied two coats of testor's flat black model paint *carefully* with a toothpick after *carefully* roughing up the LED lens with 1000 grit sandpaper (as best I could given the recess). Result is good, no shine through, however the LED is so bright it actually shines dimly through the adjacent access LED lens, which incidentally gives you a power indicator that isn't distracting. I took a picture of this in a very bright room--bare in mind the camera picked up the blue a bit more readily than your eye does. In a bright room you'd only notice it if looking for it, however in normal or dim conditions you can see the glow clearly. The access light itself is also quite bright and a different color, so it's obvious when you're looking at power (blue) vs access (white). The power cable could have been longer for more mounting flexibility, and again they could've included more useful screws. Other than that and working around the light I'm happy, for about the cost of a happy meal. Product fills the niche for 2.0, and seems reliable if not abused.

I purchased this to add a card reader on an older 2007 model desktop computer that is still a workhorse with a few minor upgrades. The traditional motherboard connector that connects most USB 2.0 devices on DDR2 motherboards is well built and durable. The card reader slots work well (tested the microSD and SDcard slots as well as the USB 2.0 slot. The enclosure is well-built as well. My only gripe about this product is that blue LED light. It's "always on" when the computer is powered on and in dim lighting is can be very annoying if trying to play a game or watch a video on a computer screen. However, my desktop is about a foot and a half from me to the right and the 3 1/2" bay it's seated in is recessed by one of those 5 1/4 bay sliding door things I can shut if not using it so It's not that big of a deal. I may consider purchasing the same type of enclosure but one with a USB 3.0 port on it with the single 19-pin connector thingy plug for the increased transfer rate of the USB port simply because I do transfer large files frequent enough. All in all, with exception of the bright blue LED light, it's a great addition to anyone just wanting the ability to pop in microSD card from their cell phone to backup photos or transfer ripped audio cd's from the desktop to the microSD card to play on your phone. I may not get the USB one because I can wait a few extra minutes for transferring data, but my ripped audio CD library in mp3 format is hitting near 15GB so yeah, for that simple reason, I may get the card reader with the USB 3.0 port and one of those PCIe USB 3.0 cards that has the 19-pin connector on it because my motherboard does not. Excellent product but the LED light could have been a bit dimmer. Happy it matches the blue illumination of my desktop tower though - it would look weird to me with a red led on the card reader and blue lighting on the original tower. Maybe I'm a bit anal about all that color matching crap though.

La carte compactflach et les connecteur usb sont monté inversé de 180°, ce qui oblige de retourner la carte pour le branchement. voit photo. la lumière de la led bleu est gênante car trop forte à mon goût. LA qualité de l'assemblage laisse à désirer. Par exemple la led blanche est trop enfoncée. Je ne recommande pas cet article. Et je rajoute: après 8 mois d'utilisation, il y a des pins qui se sont pliées sur l'emplacement de la compact flach, cela provient d'un décalage de la carte électronique vis à vis des ouvertures de la face avant. J'ai réussi à les redresser, il fonctionne à nouveau. Non je n'achèterais plus jamais ce produit.

Works great, super easy installation, good quality piece of hardware.

Good

After a few days, the card reader does not work. Only the USB port...

E' un ottimo ed efficiente lettore di memorie su bus USB 2.0 interno. E' assurdo che alcuni recensiscano male questo prodotto asserendo che non è USB 3.0. Esiste la versione 3.0 ma se una persona ha il bus 2.0 sulla propria MB è ovvio che deve prendere questo. Le schede entrano bene, avrei solo preferito più profondità di inserimento per la Compact Flash ma sembra che non esista un lettore che la abbia.. I driver sono universali anche su Windows XP. La velocità è la massima supportata dal bus. Il cavo interno è sufficientemente lungo per qualsiasi case e ben schermato. Il prodotto è solido ed ha una mascherina stabile. Un led semplicemente comunica che arriva l'alimentazione, quindi è sempre acceso quando il PC è acceso. L'altro segnala il corretto inserimento e riconoscimento di una memori card. Il tutto ha un senso. Come per qualsiasi altro lettore vengono preventivamente attribuite delle lettere di unità che rimangono tali anche quando non ci sono schede inserite. Questo è assolutamente normale ed è un comportamento standard. Prodotto consigliato.
