Review on CFexpress Portable Aluminum Thunderbolt Connection Computer Accessories & Peripherals by Pauly Blake

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent CF Express card reader with one imperfection

This is an excellent CF Express card reader with amazing data transfer speed. It takes seconds after capturing and transferring 15-20GB of data. I can't comment on the write speeds as the only files I've written to it are minor firmware updates and some color profiles for my camera that the card wrote when I put the files in the folder. But if you're looking for a great reader, don't hesitate to buy this one, especially given the price advantage over others on the market. Also, I've only had the reader for about a month and can't comment on durability. But I only update reviews when it breaks so people know how long it took me. Oh the only thing I would change about it is the fact that the USB-C input doesn't click and when you look at the device it feels like the cable should go further in. I didn't have any issues with the cable falling out, but I'll admit it's a bit of a concern even though the reader stays attached to the cable. However, I am wary of having to move the reader while the card is attached to it. I can't give half a star which is why it's 5 and not 4.5 but I definitely recommend it!

Pros
  • Plug and Play and LED indicator
Cons
  • Something different
