Customer Review: Works with microSDHC cards! (with SD adapter)
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this product for my phone. The description doesn't say that this reader/writer can read/write SanDisc microSDHC cards, but it can as long as you have the adapter that should come with it. It read my 4 gig SanDisc mircoSDHC card. Because of this product, I can save money from buying a new specifically designed data cable for every new phone I get. This is great for transferring music and pictures to and from my phone.
I'm on Verizon's network. Not sure how your phone's operating system will work with SD/SDHC cards, but if you have a Verizon phone and need help transferring music to your phone with this product, what you'll need to do is, first, put your card in your phone (you may need to format the card), then your phone should automatically create folders. With newly created folders, put your microSDHC into your adapter, then into the card reader/writer, then into your computer. Sync the songs you want (I used Windows Media Player 10), then your card should have another folder called, "Music." Open two windows, one to view the folders on your SDHC card, and one to select the songs that you just synced to your SDHC card. Then move the selected songs from the "Music" folder to the "my_music" folder (the folder your phone created) and your phone should be able to add the songs to your library next time you select "Manage Music" or "My Music" from your "Get It Now" or "Media" menu. If you don't move the songs from the "Music" folder to the "my_music" folder, then you'll have songs on your phone that your phone won't access. My phone won't simply read mp3s or wma files by just transferring music by copying and paste. I have to sync the songs using WMP10 (it then reconverts the files before syncing). I hope that helps.
Customer Review: Did not work for me - may be it was a defective piece
Summary: 2 Stars
I received this on Feb 4 2009. But I'm having problems with the device. When I plug it in my computer, the device driver installs correctly and coputer says your device is ready for use. A new removable drive shows up. But when I try to open it, computer tells me "Please insert a disk in your Removable Disk (F:\)".
Of course I have inserted a SD card and tried to remove it reinsert it but the same message comes out. I've tried it on two different OS, Windows XP & Vista and same result.
I thought may be it does not like my SD card to found a different SD card but same result (one was 4 GB and another was 1 GB).
The LED on the reader stays red when its inserted in the USB port. I have not seen any other color. Based on these experiments I have concluded that the device is defective. And I'd like to get a replacement as my first choice or return it if that is not possible.
Customer Review: Be forewarned. SPEED is KING

You can buy this item from several different sources.
It's likely made in China and any PC supplier/store can have whatever brand-name they want stamped on them.
Mine showed low-quality workmanship and was defective (would not allow writing to card).
If you're gonna buy one, better buy half-a-dozen to ensure that you get at least a couple that work properly. Don't pay more than a buck a piece.
IT's the SPEED stupid!
I have tested a Targus SDHC card reader available at Walmart for $8.88 and found it to be much faster than the above and much faster than the Topram CF-RS208 which I also recently purchased here. Being able to write a file faster is something you DO & WILL want. Also you can fast-forward through a stored video at a higher speed with a better quality card reader.
Customer Review: CTCStore 6-in-1
Summary: 5 Stars
An amazing little product about the size of a mini hilighter. One end opens up to plug into a USB port, the opens to plug in a memory card. The thing supports a bunch of different cards, I can only comment on SD cards.
The 15-in-one reader on my desktop computer didn't know how to deal with an 8GB micro SDHC even when plugged into the micro-to-SD adapter. I purchased 3 of these, partially because an earlier reviewer had one DOA. I plugged the 8GB micro SDHC into the micro to SD adapter and plugged that assembly into the CTCStore 6-in-1 and then the 6-in-1 into a USB port. I now have an 8GB flash drive that looks like any old USB device and can be used anywhere.
If you have High Capacity SD cards that you can't read and/or write this just may be the ticket for you.
Customer Review: small device does the job
Summary: 5 Stars
[...] it reads and writes 1 to 4gb SD and 1-4 micro SD (with adapter), 4gb SDHC(micro SDHC as well with its adapter) up to 16gb SDHC (these cards i tried so far) it can take up to more and higher SDHC cards. i had a 2 years old Dell laptop and it couldn't read the SDHC card in its memory card reader, so i used this CTCstore 6-in-1 USB 2.0 High Speed Memory Card Reader Writer plug it in the laptop USB port and insert the SDHC card ( Patriot 16gb SDHC), and i was able to edit and moved the photos and movies from my digital camera (Canon SD 870 IS) in and out nicely. I had window XP home on my laptop and destop as well. Hope this review is helpful to you.
