 Has it all September 28, 2007
This is the only product that you will need if you use digital storage. The format is not a problem because it has all. The speed is much faster than attaching my digital camera.
OK but not for xD Type H Cards September 12, 2007
Since this is a long discontinued product, I'm posting for the record only as I didn't see reference to this issue. I've used this reader for years with no complaints under XP SP1 and 2. However, it does not support Type H (high speed) xD picture cards. At least mine doesn't, and I was unable to find any trace of a fix. Everything else I've thrown at it, SmartMedia, SD and xD, worked fine.
SanDisk Card Reader August 9, 2007
This card reader served me very well each time I needed it. Now I have a card reader built into my PC so I don't use it currently but it was a reliable piece of equipment each time I called upon it.
So good, buying another one! June 14, 2007
I owned the 6-in-1 version of this product. I got it almost 4 YEARS AGO (back when 2Mp digital cameras were the high standard). I've been using it ever since, until it was stolen last week.
I've used it to copy photos to my laptop on trips (even got some friends out of trouble when their cameras were full). I had no problem with CF, SD, MMC and MS.
Another nice feature is the dual plug, i.e. a dock with long USB cord to set the unit on your desk (shown in photo), and a 4inch USB cord that fits nicely into my camera bad, alongside the compact reader.
It's a no-brainer: I'm definitely going to buy this again.
 8-in1 SanDisk Card Reader Disappoints After 1 Year's Use May 28, 2007
This is one product I do NOT recommend to Mac owners, or PC owners for that matter, as it failed after only 1-year's light use, right after the OEM 1-year warranty had expired. I called SanDisk about it, and they simply said "you're SOL on this, since there's no warranty after 1-year." It failed during the 9th month, but I just kept putting off calling SanDisk about it and waited too long. What happened? The "docking system" failed, that's what, ie the card reader fits into a "dock" with a Mini-USB connector for the card reader, and after 9 months use that connection failed. Why? I don't know why. Either the USB connector has a short in it, is defective, or the port on the card reader has a problem. Either way, the reader wouldn't stay connected to the power supply, rendering it useless. So I think that the design of this unit is poorly thought out for long-term use, especially if you're using the device with multiple computer systems as I was, constantly docking and removing the reader from the power system. I ended up buying the Belkin 15-N-1 card reader as a replacement, and highly recommend it over this SanDisk card reader...see my review on it and you can read why it's a better card reader system. In any case, I give this unit a 1, and in fact it deserves a 0, but Amazon doesn't allow you to give anything a ZERO rating. I hate throwing things away, but that's what I did with the SanDisk reader because it was simply useless after the docking issue became permanent, rendering the product unusable.
