    Transcend USB 3.0 Super Speed Multi-Card Reader for SD/SDHC/SDXC/MS/CF Cards (TS-RDF8W)

    • USB cable pretty hard to insert into the box, also the input socket a bit crooked
    • This USB 3.0 unit is much faster than any 2.o unit, but still not as fast as it claims to be.
    • If you plug this into a PC or MAC that doesn't support USB 3.0 or SATA3 HHD's then you won't see any improvement in speed
    • Works Perfect Nice USB reader
    • Works as promised, USB is fast
    • It's USB 3 compatible, but my computer only has USB 2 ports
    • I don't get full USB 3.0 speeds, but still faster than USB 2.0.
    • The usb 3.0 is faster than transferring from camera, just a small fraction of the time.
    • Hard to tell how much faster this is than regular USB 2.0 port but it works and should be faster.
    • USB 3 works great.
    • USB 3 works great.
    • Excellent high speed USB 3.0 Multi-Card reader
    • USB devices' speeds can be really hit or miss, and I haven't used this on USB 3.0 yet, but it is, without a doubt, the fastest USB 2.0 reader I've ever used.
    • I only have USB 2.0 but it works fast and no driver nonsense was required.
    • Be aware that you need a PC with a USB 3 controller (ports) to enjoy USB 3.0 speeds
    • Granted, the printers is on USB 2.0 but everything else using USB 3.0 works fine on my computer

    • I'ts very light, tiny .. perfect gadget if you have multiple cameras with different memoriesThe USB 3 works perfect
    • They do not support USB 3 transfer rates
    • Does what it says it does and USB 3.0 is wonderful.
    • It is backward compatible to my slower USB 2.0 port.
    • USB 3.0 is great
    • It comes with a robust but very short USB cable (18 inches/45 cm) that has a non-standard plug for the end that goes into the device, so you can't attach a longer standard USB 3 cable
    • +5 for USB 3-1 for having a totally unnecessary proprietary connector on one end of the USB cable-1 more for shipping a [proprietary] USB cable that's only 18 inches long and can't be replaced with a standard USB cable!
    • I would recommend this product to anyone who wants a faster usb reader, just make sure you have usb3 ports on your pc!
    • Would not read several Lexar SDHC cards that my old USB 2.0 reader had no issues with
    • I love the USB 3
    • Great USB 3 multi-card reader!
    • The only thing I don't like is the proprietary USB plug that this comes with; I'm afraid that if I lose it this will be useless.
    • Extremely quick when used with a proper usb 3.0 port.
    • While my current SIIG and Lexar USB 3.0 readers are pretty good, technology marches
    • A strong, flexible cable (USB) comes with it.
    • I bought this Transcend model for three reasons - it supports USB 3.0, it supports a wide variety of card types and it was made by Transcend, a brand name I have grown to trust over the past 3 to 4 years
    • Pros:- Small, but about the same size as my Insignia USB 2.0 reader.
    • USB 3 makes this thing really fast.
    • Isn't helpful if your device doesn't offer USB 3.0 like my old macbook
    • My system only supports USB
    • Went back to old Kingston USB 2.0 reader and that one works fine.
    • USB 3.0 supported.

    • The USB 3.0 works great
    • This does not work on my PC (USB 2 and USB3, Ubuntu Linux 14.04.1 with 3.16.0 kernel).
    • Like it, only problem is that it comes with a weird usb cable which if lost means you're screwed because it doesn't fit the standard a to b usb cable
    • This USB 3.0 Multi-function SD card reader is the best!
    • I also broke down and picked up a cheap usb 3.0 pci card after a couple weeks and now it averages in the 85-95 mB/s range but sometimes over 100 and never under 72-73 ish.
    • USB 3 speeds are much faster than USB 2.Also, in case anyone was wonder a Blue LED status light blinks during data transfer and when it's turned on ( not specified in the description).
    • The one downside is the short, stiff USB cable

    • USB 3.0 speeds will spoil you
    • I had hoped to upgrade to a faster USB 3.0 reader

    • When the unit is connect to a USB port (whether USB 2 or 3) a blue LED dot is displayed to the far left of the Transcend logo on top of the unit.

    • Fantastic even increases the speed using USB 2.0!I have the same unit made for USB 2.0 I purchased from amazon last December

    • This is a great little USB 3.0 multi-card reader
    • The USB 3.0 works great
