What it is and who it is for

This compact USB 2.0 card reader accepts microSD and microSDHC cards up to 16 GB. It turns a memory card into a portable USB flash drive for quick file transfers. Designed for laptop and desktop users who need a lightweight way to offload photos or documents from a phone or camera. Not suited for anyone requiring microSDXC support, UHS speed modes or a multi-slot hub.

Deciding specification

The reader follows the SD 2.00 specification and operates over a USB 2.0 interface. This limits maximum throughput to USB 2.0 speeds and restricts compatible media to standard-capacity and high-capacity microSD cards only. Buyers with newer cards rated for faster bus modes will not see those speeds, and cards larger than 16 GB are not supported.

Installation and common issues

Installation is plug-and-play on any USB 2.0 or 1.1 port with no drivers required. The unit measures 3.2 x 1.5 x .7 cm with a 1.8 cm integrated cable and weighs .14 oz. Its tiny size makes it easy to misplace, and the short tether can strain the USB port if the dangling card reader is knocked. Ensure the card clicks fully into the single slot to avoid read errors.

Questions about this item

What cards does the reader actually take once it is plugged into a computer?

It reads microSD and microSDHC cards up to 16 GB, so any card in that range appears as a removable drive.

What does the USB 2.0 interface limit in real use?

The USB 2.0 connection caps transfer speed at the bus maximum, so large files move at typical USB 2.0 rates rather than the card's own ceiling.

How much space does the reader need to sit in a USB port alongside other devices?

The body measures 3.2 x 1.5 x 0.7 cm with a 1.8 cm cable, so it occupies a single port without blocking neighbours.
