Digital camera reviews of Sandisk Extreme USB 2.0 3in1 Card Reader (SDDRX3-3IN1-901, US Retail Package)

Digital camera Review: Fast and reliable
Summary: 5 Stars

I purchased this unit a year ago and use it about once a week. It is very fast, depending on your CF card. I've offloaded images at 30 MB/second, which is about all USB 2.0 can do. I use it with Lexar 133X/300X cards and SanDisk Extreme III cards - they all perform impressively. The SD/MMC slot works equally well. I've used it with SanDisk, Sony, and Lexar cards.

The unit has only two limitations, but they weren't limitations when I purchased it. It doesn't do SD/HD and it doesn't do CF UDMA, but it never was represented as such. Maybe SanDisk will do an upgrade in the near future.

I purchased this unit for $25, so I don't understand the current high price. But, if it drops in the future to a more reasonable, affordable price don't hesitate to buy one. Given the current economic climate, SanDisk could modernize the unit or they could stop manufacturing it and you'd be left to purchase one of the many cheaper pieces of junk that are out there. My opinon.
