Some computers and tablets do not have a card reader and this device allows access to files on a micro SD card for the purpose of copying, reading, updating and deleting files along with other activities like viewing files created by a car dashboard camera or other external sources.My Raspberry Pi does have an SD card socket but it is occupied by the boot micro SD. With this adapter, I can plug in an additional micro SD card which I can format to use as an alternate boot or a backup card. It is also compatible with newer laptops that use USB C ports, like Apple.I tested the device with my Raspberry Pi, a Dell laptop and an Asus desktop and it worked fine in each instance.

This micro SD card reader is not only affordable, it's well built and reliable. I've used it to back up photos & vids. Also to write over a wide range of cell phones and tablets. All operations went off w/out a hitch. I would definitely recommend this nifty little reader to anyone. One of the coolest features is where the card is inserted. It is inverted in to the USB A plug itself (See pictures). Not only does that allow for a small form factor overall, it's also quite stealthy. This reader can seem empty to the uninitiated. This can prove to be handy in certain situations. I should also mention that it has both USB A & Micro USB plugs, lending to it's versatility. 5☆'s ????

Work well for me, fast on USB3, though I note that if you're using USB3 for anything, your range for wireless keyboards and mice goes way way down...these seem to more reliably get all the bits right when burning SD cards for raspberry pi and other things like that, where every bit matters. I put this on a hub I got at amazon with switches to turn it off when not in use, so my keyboards and mice work from across the room instead of within 2 feet - that's not just this item, it's most USB3 devices that don't take extreme care in RF shielding (and this, by definition has big holes...).

I was looking for a card reader which can be used as bootable device similar to a usb pen drive.As this one is plug and play, it is detected during the boot time.I was able to boot using a microSD card with this device, without any issues at all.This device adds 2 bootable options one for MicroSD/HC and SD/SDHC/SDXC/MMC cards and other for MS/MSXC cards.Very happy with the read/write performance as well as this supports USB 3.0I no longer have to buy a USB pen drive..I find it's better to buy multiple microSD cards if needed as they can be used in most other devices.

I am a DIT for the TV/Film industry. Part of my job is to download memory cards from digital cameras and I download a lot of them. I have burned through about 5 multi card readers in the past few years. They all seem to be very poorly constructed and use the small USB 3.0 B type plug which breaks easily.I have only had this reader for a few months so I can't speak to it's long term reliability but so far so good. It seems to have a very solid construction (more than most). It also has the larger USB 3.0 B type plug that is way way more solid and less likely to break.

I bought this as a way to give myself a reachable SD card slot for an iMac, which has a ridiculous placement of the SD slot on the BACK of the display. In this case the cable on the SD card reader is just a bit too short and the device dangles off the back of the computer, which will eventually hurt the USB port. So you need USB slots nearby -- that said, on a laptop, the cable is the perfect length. I would've preferred that this device not have an inbuilt cable, but instead a usb port and a provided cable, but would allow me to use my own cable of the right length.

Quite the little gadget for being so small. It does what it says it willl do and maybe more. I'm too old to figure out what all them strings of letters in the product description are. With this, I just stick the card into the slot and plug this into a USB port. No incantations or magic wands. But just like magic, there are the pictures on my computer screen. The camera instructions tried to steer me to larger and more expensive readers. Glad I found this. Thanks Amazon ..... and the south Asian person who assembled it.

I love this card reader it’s got a nice section for the cable to tuck away at the side and it’s veru high speed I was getting 60Mb / 40mb read and write using my micro Sd card using an adaptor for it. It’s just a shame that it’s so expensive but you do get what you pay for and the quality seems good.I wish I had a micro Sd card slot but most of them come with adapters these days so it’s ok.I always liked the brand StarTech, every piece of StarTech hardware I’ve owned has been reliable and good quality

Wasn't getting the speed I was hoping for out of my UHS-II SD cards so I contacted customer service. They told me to try the aux power supply. I thought that had. fixed it but it turns out I just happened to plug my card into slot 2 instead of slot 1 for the first time. If you'll be transferring 2 cards at once, make sure you put the faster card in slot 2.

i shoot concerts and live performace.. so i come back with an absolutely ridiculous amount of photos. This card reader is ridiculously fast. i can pull all the images off a sony 128gb card in about 6 min. with a macbook pro. (for that kinda speed you need to be using fast UHS-II cards)its been around the world with me twice. its held up just fine.

Worked exactly as advertised! I decided to resurrect my Sony FD-85 1.3 megapixel camera. I was happy to find the battery on Amazon and then realized I had no way to read the olde 8-meg memory sticks. I was familiar with StarTech so I chose this adapter. I just plugged it in and used it on both my Windows-10 notebook and my Mac running High Sierra.

These are a great solution for connecting SD cards to your PC without having to connect devices. The download / upload speed is quite good and it has worked with every SD memory card I've thrown at it, even the old ones which back about 15 years or so when SD cards took off. I've never had a problem with Startech brand computer parts.

Everything i've plugged into this so has worked perfect for loading roms my suggestion though would be use a added extention micro usb the connector seems to be on the long side so it doesn't fit snug to your device and could break if the right pressure is applied to the device

Exactly as in the product description. High quality at a fairly reasonable price. I would recommend. Please read the product descriptions carefully. It has specific equipment. USB - Type C, SD CARD reader. Adapter needed to read the micro SD card.

Like many StarTech products I have purchased, this one works very well. It's small, the instructions are easy to read and it was a fair price. I have used StarTech support in the past and do not hesitate to buy their products.
