Re: Easiest card reader solution?

2016-07-24 by scott@...

I'm not sure how much help this will be, but I was an early adopter of using SCSI SD solutions. I purchased a SCSIforSamplers drive years ago.

I can echo everyone's issues with reliability of the cards and more importantly the little connectors internal to the drive. the SCSIforSamplers solution has both an SD and a Compact Flash slot on the front and by far, the robustness of the CF connector makes it the most reliable. Often the SD interface needs adjustment, jiggling, and cajoling to make work. There's also a SmartMedia interface on the drive, but who uses that?

:)

Best.
