Black Square Card Reader

The OTG card reader is a plus!

Works well, only wish it would come with the appropriate card reader.

A very fast card reader!

This is the best choice for a card reader.

Great card reader.

Getting read speeds of 500-600 MBs from a Delkin Black card. The reader is not heating up at all. Stays cool. A lot of reviews for other readers say the card and reader get hot, not this one!

So I had been using a Delkin card reader to download my image files from a Delkin Black CF Express type B card used in my Nikon Z8 and Z9. The Delkin reader has performed well and downloads them to my IPad Pro very quickly. But I’ve noticed the exterior of the reader gets quite warm. So wanting to look at other options I read the reviews on the OWC Atlas reader and purchased it from B&H. Delivery was excellent as is their norm. I’m very happy with the reader. If anything, from my perspective it appears to be even faster than the Delkin. It also is has more mass and runs cooler with the larger effective heat sink. I will keep the Delkin as a backup but my go to now is the OWC unit. Highly recommended.

Small, square, black and performs as expected.

I purchased this SanDisk Professional PRO-READER Multi Card Reader after my laptop SD card reader failed. Ordered it from B&H overnight delivery and it arrived at 10am next day - so kudos to B&H for that. Here's my first thoughts on this SanDisk card reader: -It's fast! First time using it was able download 202 21MP photos from Import to ready to edit in the Develop module in Lightroom in 40 seconds - about 1/4 of the time required compared to my laptop's now defunct card reader. Your milage will vary. -It's USB-C 3.2 version 2 as advertised. (My Windows 11 ProArt Studio laptop does have a USB-C 4 Thunderbolt input. However Thunderbolt card readers cost $200-$300 or more, which was more than I was willing to pay, so this SanDisk reader was a happy compromise. Nevertheless, plugged it into the Thunderbolt port to attain the download speed I mentioned above). -Build quality. The case is made of rugged ribbed aluminum that I think will stand up exceptionally well in a busy office environment. It also looks 'professional' as it not constructed of cheap looking plastic. On the bottom of the case there are four small rubber feet that should stop it from sliding around on a desk like plastic card readers are wont to do. Finally, and this is a big plus for this Sandisk card reader compared to another plasticky 'Top Seller' sold for the same price, the several times I have use it so far it never became too hot to touch or to remove the SD card from it. It's one cool dude, in fact. - Size wise, it's roughly the size of a business card though maybe an inch longer. And if you require more than one I believe SanDisk offers a raid style enclosure to accommodate up to four. My conclusion: This SanDisk Professional PRO-READER Multi Card Reader is very fast, well built, looks professional and stays cool to the touch. So, would I recommend it to a friend. Absolutely!

If you are shooting 4K or above, this card reader is a must.
