Aluminum 7 in 1 Card Reader

     It seems like every electrical device has some sort of memory card built in.  If you have a digital camera, PDA, digital camcorder, MP3 player, Cell phones, etc. you realize that you have a bunch of different types of memory cards.  You could go out and buy a USB hub and have 7 different devices, with their individual drivers and software installed or you could hook up Enermax's 7 in 1 card reader.  The best thing is the Enermax card reader is USB 2.0 and requires no external power.  So, if you have an old camera that uses Compact Flash memory and it's only USB 1.1, your data transfer will be much faster by using the Enermax card reader.

Enermax part number: ECR-A7S

Details

  • Aluminum design
  • Hi-Speed USB 2.0( up to 480Mbit/sec )compatible with all USB 1.1 ports

     If you count the two different types of CompactFlash media and the memory stick and memory stick pro, you actually get 8 different types of media you can use.

     The Enermax Card Reader has a slim, aluminum design and weighs practically nothing.  As you can see from the picture above, it requires no external power.  It gets all the power it needs from the USB cable.
