Rosewill RCR-IC002 - 74-in-1 Internal Card Reader with USB 2.0 Ports & Extra Silver Face Plate - Fits 3.5" Drive Bay

Pros: Reads my SD and MicroSD cards without any issue, and the USB Port works well too. The extra face plate is a nice addition too. The price was decent too (bought it on sale). After more than a month, the card reader seems to still work well.

Cons: When plugging in a MicroSD card, be careful. You want to make sure your actually plugging the SD card in the top-part of the reader (there is enough space to push the SD card under the port and it will fall into the bottom of the reader itself). If that does happen though, you can take the face plate off and retrieve the MicroSD card.

Overall Review: The blue LED on front for indicating power is a nice addition to my case that has blue LED fans inside. While the extra face plate is a nice addition, I can't say I have too much use for it with my case being black :p

Pros: Got a couple of these for other peoples computers they perfect no issues with installation both worked just fine with appropriate speeds with memory cards they very happy with them can't complain at all and got them on sale

Cons: they don't go on sale often enough

Pros: Have used various model Rosewill card readers on several PC builds usually with acceptable results.

Cons: Would not work with MSI P67A-GD55, Socket 1155 motherboard; system would not boot properly with card reader connected, i.e., caused really bad POST delays. No amount of BIOS fiddling would stop the problem. It was as if the MB wanted to "think" of the reader as several individual hard drives and repeatedly put them back in the boot sequence even after disabling them in the boot order. Even flashed the BIOS to the very latest Version. Finally just removed the Rosewill reader completely, hooked up a plain USB connector to the onboard header and all was fine.

Overall Review: Clearly this could have been more of a motherboard problem than a card reader problem, but I did not have another card reader to test before delivering the finished PC (with no internal reader). In the final analysis, it was an annoyance, no matter the "real" culprit. I strongly suspect the Rosewill card reader.

Pros: Works great. Reads SD cards, which is all I really care about.

Cons: I have trouble writing to the cards, but as I never really use it for that it doesn't really bother me.

Overall Review: Blue LED always stays on, even when computer is off. Not a big deal. Also, glad that the LED is blue since my computer has blue lights inside of it.

Pros: Low cost (got it on a Daily Deal), easy to install, reads CF cards and USB devices like it's supposed to.

Cons: None so far.

Overall Review: I haven't had this long enough to know how durable it's going to be, but so far it works as advertised --- no complaints.

Pros: One less thing on my desk, one less cord hanging out of the computer (fits in a floppy bay, who needs a floppy anymore?). Read's everything I've put into so far. I've got a giant case, but the cable was plenty long enough to reach a USB header on my mainboard.

Cons: Lot's of trouble transferring from memory cards to USB flash drive plugged into this unit. In fact, if I have a flashdrive and a SD memory card inserted at the same time, ALL the drives disappear from Windows (Vista64). Only full power-down will restore operation.

Overall Review: Using the USB OR various digicam memory cards works fine, just don't expect to do card-to-flash transfers. Not really a big deal, just use your desktop as an intermediate step and you'll have no trouble.

Pros: Great card reader, Newegg super saver had this arrive at my doorstep in two days. I bought this to replace a card reader that wouldn't read SDHC cards, and to have a built in microSD card reader slot. It also reads the ADATA 8GB class 6 microSDHC card that I bought from Newegg and it is fast.

Cons: SD card reader isn't hot swappable. If you don't choose eject from the desktop and simply remove the SD card the card reader will power off until you reset your PC or remove and reinsert the USB header (which i'm not too comfortable with but it works). This was not the case with the microSD slot and I have not yet tested the other ports.

Overall Review: All in all this is a great reader, it has a cool blue light that shows it has power and a green light to show a card is inserted. Also when using a micro SD card, make sure that it is fully inserted if the green light will come on but the card is not reading. Simple mistake.

Pros: It Works just like its supposed to, very easy to install and the black faceplate looks really good

Cons: you cannot use microSD and SD card at the same time, only one at a time, so I can't copy files from the camera SD straigh to the phone's micro SD, no biggie but I wish I could
