  • Front USB 3.0 and 3.1 Type-C ports deliver up to 500 MB/s

Multi-format front-panel card reader

The Vszerda 5.25" unit installs in a standard drive bay and provides six card slots covering CF, MD, XD, MMC, TF, M2 and MS formats. Three USB 3.0 ports and one USB 3.1 Type-C port deliver tested transfer rates up to 500 MB/s. An LED indicator shows active read status and the ABS plastic fascia resists daily wear.

Suits builders who need legacy card support

This panel is aimed at photographers, video editors or archive workers who still use CompactFlash, Memory Stick or older SD variants and want front-access convenience. It does not help users who only need modern UHS-II SD or microSD slots, nor does it serve systems lacking a free 5.25" bay or an internal USB 3.0 header.

Handles multiple simultaneous card transfers

Six slots allow parallel offload from several cameras or drones without swapping media, and the 500 MB/s ceiling covers high-bitrate video ingest. The bottleneck appears when moving large batches across the single USB 3.1 Type-C link, so sustained multi-stream writes will queue behind that shared bandwidth.

Questions about this item

Does this front panel need a spare 5.25" drive bay in my case?

Yes, it mounts in a standard 5.25" drive bay and connects to internal USB headers on the motherboard.

Will the USB 3.0 ports on this panel work if my motherboard only has USB 2.0 headers?

The panel uses USB 3.0 and USB 3.1 Type-C interfaces; they will fall back to USB 2.0 speeds when connected to older headers.

How can I confirm the card reader is active after installing it?

The built-in LED indicator lights up whenever a card is being read, giving immediate visual confirmation.
