Digital camera reviews of Sandisk MicroMate Reader - for SD and SDHC memory cards
Digital camera Review: Sandisk MicroMate
Summary: 5 Stars
The product I received was working great and in wonderful condition. The shipping was a little slow though. It could have been much faster.Digital camera Review: Sandisk MicroMate Reader - for SD & SDHC Memory Cards
Summary: 5 Stars
This card reader works really well for me, just gotta plug it into the ol Mac and loads straight into iPhoto. Everything arrived on time, works well. But whenever I shake the card reader I can hear something rattling, or hitting something. I'm not sure what it is, but hasn't affect the card reader yet. I think I may have paid a little more for this item, but it's an easy way to transfer pics. Sorry I'm out of words can't think of anything else.... Just a good product that works well too.Digital camera Review: Fast, easy to use reader
Summary: 5 Stars
Although the wide design leaves something to be desired because it covers other ports while in use, it is not much of a problem for me because I mainly use it to transfer photos and it is not always plugged in.
Some reviewers have complained about speed so I decided to put it to a real life test and it performed flawlessly. It was able to read 2GB worth of files (about 600) in 2 minutes and 45 seconds. It was able to write that same content in about 5.5 minutes. I used an ordinary 2GB Kingston card for that test.
Installation was quick on my Widows XP PC. Windows recognized it instantly and it was up and running in about 5 seconds.
The cover can be used on the opposite side to protect an inserted card or just to keep it from getting lost. I highly recommend it and would buy it again.
Digital camera Review: Convenient little sucker
Summary: 5 Stars
I don't like uploading my pictures directly through a camera and this memory reader is so convenient. It is small and sleek. I like that it is white; looks really nice.Digital camera Review: Does It's Job but...
Summary: 3 Stars
The reader works as designed. However, the reader doesn't fit into some front panel USB ports without a USB extender because it's so wide. It fits on my Dell PC but not my Toshiba laptop when it's on my desk. I'd have to lift up my laptop to push it in and it would be supporting the laptop on a tilt. Not a good idea.
The other problem I ran into with the SDHC read/write is that it reads really slow. When transferring photos from my SDHC card to my PC it takes much longer than doing so with a standard SD card. I compared this by transferring the same files from both the SDHC and SD card.
