Review on Iogear GFR201SDM USB 2.0 Memory Card Reader/Writer by Travis Carter

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Great microSD reader!

This is the only USB reader that will fit and close a microSD card. Most others have the card sticking out of the page like a piece of toast. It seems that writing takes a little longer than reading. Although my other Toaster microSD reader works the same way. My Zaurus has an SD, my phone has a miniSD, so I have a miniSD to SD adapter for the Zaurus and this one for the computer. Now it's easy to move data between all three devices. A real lifesaver. And it looks just like a regular USB stick. No small toaster. Only one real downside that I can see. There is no way to attach a lanyard or keychain. Serious! I'm giving 4 instead of 5 due to slower recording and lack of ability to attach a strap/keychain. All in all a good reader/writer for moving data between devices and your laptop/computer. Does not replace a good fast USB drive, mainly due to slower writing.

Pros
  • Waiting
Cons
  • The list is getting long.
