Just plug the reader into a USB port (USB 2.0 Hi-Speed or USB 1.1) and insert your memory card into the reader. It is recognized as a Drive letter on a Window's based PC or as an Icon on a Mac. You can then use the familiar click-and-drag operation to work with your files.

4.0 out of 5 stars Does exactly what it says., December 13, 2009

Fast little card reader. I use this with a pro duo mach 2 memory card (4gb). It clocks about 6 megabytes per second on the read, and about 3 megabytes / sec on the write. So it reads and writes the card at full speed with no problems. My only complaint is the design. The picture says it all; it is very easy to bump the card and mess up a file during read or write.

I bought this product five days ago (December 2009) and it does exactly what it says it does! Read and copied all 200 pictures off of my MemoryPro Duo Stick in minutes. It's great because I lost my bulky camera connection cord. Now I just use this. I have no idea what the extension cord they shipped with is for but otherwise it's perfect. And so cheap!

i am not satisfied with this product. the slot for the memory stick to insert into seems to be too big and i must wedge something in so that the card makes good contact in order to be able ot use it.
