1.0 out of 5 stars Great idea... Bad design... Really bad support., January 10, 2003
By 
Spriz "Spriz" (Fall River, MA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hawking Technology 6-in-1 USB Universal Memory Drive (Personal Computers)
I bought this product to replace an older card reader that had failed. I was very happy when I plugged it in and Windows automatically recognized it without any problems whatsoever... Until I read the fine print...

This "universal" memory reader is not so universal after all. It can't read an SD card larger than 128 MB or a Multimedia Card larger than 64 MB. This is a serious flaw with SD cards up to 256+ and MMC's at 128MB. I send an email to Hawking asking if there was an upgrade and recieved the following response:

"Sorry, it is not support more than 64m MMC card, and more than 128M SD card.
No upgrade now.
Best Regards,
Hawking Technology(N)"

Stay away from this card reader. I am returning it and going with the Sandisk Imagemate 6-in-1 reader model #SDDR-86-07

If there was a rating lower than 1 star, this product would get it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't Buy This, It's Junk, April 18, 2004
This review is from: Hawking Technology 6-in-1 USB Universal Memory Drive (Personal Computers)
Wow. What a piece of junk. Doesn't read memory stick pro, which was why I had originally bought it. Really badly machined - you can't ever really tell when the card is fully in and when it isn't. Pushing cards in (including cards that are advertised as being supported by the reader), it was so sticky and awkward that I kept wondering if I was damaging the card. Huge mistake. I'm never buying anything from Hawking again.

Betweeen this and, say, a magnifying glass to read the memory card, I'd recommend the magnifying glass.
