Review on ZOWEETEK Smart Card Reader: DOD Military USB Common Access CAC - Windows, Mac OS, Linux Compatible by Ismael Hennigan

I have had this card reader for almost 2 years now. It worked great for the first 6 months. After that, the cable had to be positioned just so that the reader could be connected to the computer. It's not the USB or the device itself, it's the location of the cable. and different every time. Imagine sitting at your desk sipping coffee with one hand and holding the CAC reader over your head just to plug the damn thing in. Super disappointing. 0/10 recommend this for long term use. Wouldn't buy again. Government readers are much better, and THAT is saying something.
