Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

SimpleTech's CompactFlash Type II adapter lets you enjoy the high-speed read, write, and erase capabilities of CompactFlash cards in any PCMCIA-equipped device. Just slide a CompactFlash card into this adapter and you can use your flash card with myriad laptops, digital cameras, and desktop computers. It's a great way to transfer pictures, data, and other files--you can drag and drop files from the CompactFlash card to a PC, just like a removable hard disk--and it even supports hot swapping. The adapter's low power use extends battery life (when used in a portable device), and SimpleTech warrants the product for one year from the date of purchase. The adapter is compatible with devices that use a standard Type I or II PC Card slot.

1.0 out of 5 stars WILL NOT WORK WITH TYPE II CF CARDS, January 12, 2006

This review is from: SimpleTech FlashLink PC Card Adapter for Type I and II CompactFlash Cards (Personal Computers)

This adapter only accepts Type I CompactFlash cards, IT WILL NOT WORK with Type II CF cards because they are thicker than a Type I and the slot in this adapter isn't large enough. Amazon's picture appears to be an older version which WOULD accept a Type II CF card, but SimpleTech's current version of model# STI-CFADII is different. CHECK FOR YOURSELF before wasting your time and money: http://www.simpletech.com/estore/index.php?partNumber=STI-CFADII

5.0 out of 5 stars Gread adaptor, easy to use, January 17, 2005

This review is from: SimpleTech FlashLink PC Card Adapter for Type I and II CompactFlash Cards (Personal Computers)

I use this adaptor to read a 1 GB SimpleTech CF card that I use for an A95 Canon digital camera. This adaptor is metal, and the quality is good. Just insert your card into the adaptor, plug the adaptor into the appropriate slot in your computer, and you are off. The computer should recognize the card automatically, and a new drive will show up for it under My Computer (Win XP).

Make sure that you put the card into the adaptor before inserting it into the slot. If you just put the adaptor in without the card, NOTHING HAPPENS! Just telling you this so you can avoid a scare.

I have two SimpleTech cards, and they are both reliable as is this adaptor. I currently recommend SimpleTech, and will continue to do so until given a reason not to.

OK... I'm totally into this digital photo album thing. I needed a solution for my notebook computer so I can edit my photos when traveling and SimpleTech seems to have everything I need. This PC adapter is perfect, and now I can take more digital images and edit them even when I'm not at home. Works great!!
