Did NOT work then - Computers and accessories

It was great until it went away. I've only had it for a few weeks and suddenly today - after careful use - it no longer works with my CF card that I use in my digital SLR. That's why I bought this card reader - my previous one stopped reading my CF after a few years. I don't know what the problem is, but I'm very disappointed.

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • Something's wrong

Works great with card readers

I have all four types of memory cards that this reader supports and it's nice to have them all in one device. I don't have a USB-3 yet and it works great with my slower old USB-2. One downside is that it doesn't like my USB 2 ports and I have to fiddle with it to get it into the slot. This is a mechanical fit issue and I found a way around this issue. (with enough fiddling) Once connected everything worked great. Leave enough free space around the USB ports. With memory cards installed, it's a…

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Reliable

Works great, cover will be lost soon

Works great, no problems. Does what I bought it for reading many different types of cards. The worst is the plastic cover. I want to keep it to protect the connector but it is a very loose fit and all I know is that I will lose it soon. But for the price there is nothing to complain about - it works perfectly.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Nothing

Works well as long as it works well for card readers

I just received it yesterday. It allocates four disks, one for each card type that can be used. I wrote to a 128MB Type II CF card (which we use with a Janome sewing machine). This was on a Windows 10 64-bit laptop and worked very well the first time I used it. I don't know if we'll have the dreaded pin bending problem (associated with this type of reader/writer) in the future or not. I intend to carefully insert the card into the device. [It came with an instruction manual. This is not…

Pros
  • Special offer
Cons
  • Waiting too long

Another underperforming device from Ugreen

This is my third Ugreen SD card reader that I have bought. None of them can exceed a read or write speed of 100MB/s when connected to this device, which is far below the advertised USB 3.0 5Gb/s speed. In fact, none of the three Ugreen reader models I bought can handle speeds over 100MB/s. Another disadvantage of this reader is that it is quite large. It looks like a full-size e-reader in the photo, but it's actually about three times the size of a regular USB drive.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Hard to say

Great card reader

I bought the UGREEN card reader because I bought a used Nikon D810 and needed a CF card reader. The reader had to be compatible with the UDMA 7 compact flash cards I bought. This device is much more convenient than connecting my camera directly to the computer. The device is durable and transfers files at USB 3.0 speeds. Based on my experience, I highly recommend this reader.

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • There are flaws

At first I thought it was slow

I used to have a front panel SD card reader that connected directly to the motherboard. That being said I had to use an SD to microSD adapter and the speed was great. This device allowed me to connect the microSD directly, bypassing the adapter, so why not. The performance was very poor and at first I thought it was related to the device I bought, but I decided to try the adapter to see what happens. What an incredible difference! The speed is back to what it was with my old card reader on the…

Pros
  • Not just useful for its intended purpose
Cons
  • Almost never

Works great with memory card accessories

I have all four types of memory cards that this reader supports and it's nice to have them all in one device. I don't have a USB-3 yet and it works great with my slower old USB-2.

(with enough fiddling) Once connected everything worked great. Leave enough free space around the USB ports. With memory cards installed, it's a…

Micro SD, Micro SDXC, Micro SDHC, CFI, High Speed Compact Flash (UDMA 7), Memory Card, MS PRO, MS PRO-HG, MS PRO-HG DUO Mark2, MS Micro (M2).

More convenient and economical.

Beware of Sharp Edge: Computers and Accessories

I bought this card reader to prepare for a bulk file transfer and photo editing session that I've been putting off for a while. I was hoping it would work well, but it's just an average card reader. No better than the ones you can buy at your local mart store. The advertising text of this reader refers to the speed of 5 Gb/s. I know it's unrealistic to expect this, that's what USB 3.0 might be capable of. However, I expected it to outperform my USB 2.0 hardware by more than a small fraction…

Pros
  • Super-Speed 5Gb/s Transfer: UGREEN Multi Card Reader supports USB 3.0 high-speed performance with transfer rates up to 5.0Gb/s, 10X faster than USB 2.0 When used with high-speed memory cards such as Class 10 SDHC, this SD reader can transfer 1GB files in 10 seconds. The powerful GL3223 chip offers fast and reliable access to your memory cards and guarantees a stable data transfer rate. More efficient and saves you waiting time.
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
