8-in-1 Front-Panel Card Reader

This Hetai Tech unit mounts in a standard 5.25-inch bay and reads eight card formats including SD, CF, TF, SDHC, MMC, SDXC and MD. It adds USB 3.0, USB 3.1 and eSATA ports to the front of a desktop for quick media access. Builders who need a single internal hub for legacy and current memory cards will find it convenient.

Interface Mix Decides Fit

The reader delivers USB 3.0, USB 3.1 and eSATA connections from one front-panel slot, so the motherboard must supply matching internal headers or a spare PCIe controller. If your board lacks an eSATA header or enough USB 3.x headers, those ports will stay inactive.

Installation and Clearance

The ABS chassis measures 14.7 cm wide, 7.7 cm tall and 4 cm deep, fitting most ATX cases with a free 5.25-inch bay. Internal cables route to the motherboard headers, leaving external drive bays free for optical drives or additional storage.
