Review on πŸ’¨ Fast Data Transfer with Legent CF2 CFast 2.0 to USB-C/SATA Card Reader Adapter by Chris Castro

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Well-made interface device for SATA III drives and Cast 2.0 cards.

The Legend CF2 CFast 2.0 to USB-C/SATA Card Reader is an interesting peripheral. I've never seen anything like this. This is an interface that supports USB-C (USB 3.1 Gen2) SATA III drives and is compatible with Cast 2.0 cards. In case you are unfamiliar with Cast 2.0 cards, this is a memory card used by TV, film and photography professionals. The advantage of these cards is that they are generally faster than SD cards. They are derived from and are similar to Compact Flash (CF) memory cards. They are ideal for capturing ultra-high resolution photos with a DSLR or capturing 4K video at faster capture speeds. There aren't many Cast 2.0 card readers on the market. The Legend CF2 CFast 2.0 to USB-C/SATA card reader fills this gap. This is a powerful device in an aluminum body. It can be installed in a bay or used as a standalone device. It works well and although it is intended for a narrow market, it is a very useful and unique interface device for professionals and even some consumers.
