Review on πŸ’¨ High-Performance SanDisk Extreme PRO CFexpress Card Reader - SDDR-F451-GNGNN: Unleash Lightning-Fast Data Transfer Speeds by Trey Michaels

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Also won't read XQD cards

I use a Nikon D850 camera that requires XQD cards and when I found out that CF Express cards also work with a software update I jumped at it. But my XQD reader didn't read CF Express cards, so I'm having trouble with this Sandisk reader. It works great and reads CF Express cards. BUT NO XQD cards. So now I need to use a different card reader that occupies more USB ports. Come on Sandisk! You had the opportunity to make a card reader that reads BOTH because you advertise to me that your CF Express cards are a great alternative to XQD and you ditched the idea of making it a universal reader. Not to mention I had to buy another USB cable because the one that came with it wasn't compatible. Wow Sandisk! If you only have CF Express cards, this reader will suffice. Otherwise, you may need to do more research.

Pros
  • Memory card accessories
Cons
  • Fragile
