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

Works good. I didnt know that it was half the size of a normal drive bay, which is totally my fault. 🤦‍♂️ But if you want it to fit a standard 3.5 inch bay you need a mount for it. Usb works great, all cards read perfect. And its really good too cause i got one of those sony goobers that fit and read right up in there. Connects with ease. Great product

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 can't believe I'm (finally) replacing my floppy drive in the 3.5" bay. I'm so old school, my first computer had 1MB RAM and a 10MB drive. So old, I didn't want to give up the floppy drive, even though I haven't used a disk in nearly 10 years. I've used USB external readers before, but since the floppy drive is gone for good, and my Kingston SD adapter went belly up, it made sense to add a permanent reader to my Dell Precision T5500 workstation. Step one, locate the USB header -- check. For the T5500, the cable is long enough, so okay. Step two, mount the reader in the 3.5" bay -- check. The reader is a little to large to fit into the front bezel, so rather than mounting flush, I have to recess it. Nevertheless, it works for what I needed -- to read and write SD and MicroSD without the use of an external adapter. Minus one star because the SD slot and the MicroSD slot share the same drive letter. What I needed to do was copy a SD card to a Micro SD, and I couldn't do that because they were both on the same path. I had to use another drive as a go-between. I'm used to troubleshooting and shuttling data, but inexperienced users will start out wondering why both their cards won't read. It's because the MicroSD slot and the SD slot are tied to the same path. If you put two cards in, neither one will show up until you remove one. On the T5500, I was getting 10MB real-world transfer rates (USB 2.0) At this price, worth every penny unless it fails prematurely, but with a 3-year warranty, I am hoping this will last as long as my floppy drives lasted (they all lasted the life of their computers). I haven't used any of the other card slots, but I will return and report if and when I do.

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...

Eccellente lettore di card. Legge velocemente sia Microsd che SD che pen drive. Si installa molto comodamente. Lo super consiglio
