Cardbus-to-Expresscard Adapter,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: StarTech.com ExpressCard to CardBus Laptop Adapter CB2EC (Personal Computers)
It was with great hesitation, that I ordered this product. I'd read many reviews about it - stating that it was "wobbly" and didn't do the job at all.
Well - for us - it worked first-time - right out of the box ... and has continued to function perfectly, ever since. Yes - I agree that "because of it's size", it sticks out of the ExpressCard slot - and could get "knocked-around" a bit. That's something to watch out for. What we did though - was place two CD-cases underneath the adapter - and next to the laptop. That prevents us for accidentally "knocking it around" and dislodging it (or worse) !! It works perfectly well for us - and we're very pleased with it !!

This review is from: StarTech.com ExpressCard to CardBus Laptop Adapter CB2EC (Personal Computers)
I purchased this adapter in order to mount the P2 cardbus cards used for my video productions but found after repeated tries that neither the old A Series nor the newer E Series cards would mount using this adapter. Waste of money if you're trying to use them in your video workflow.

It works for me,

This review is from: StarTech.com ExpressCard to CardBus Laptop Adapter CB2EC (Personal Computers)
I purchased this in order to use an Echo Indio IO Cardbus soundcard in the Expresscard slot on my newer laptop. I have had no problems with compatibility with this card.
Everything works as advertised. As other online reviewers have said, this adapter leaves your card sticking pretty far out from the edge of the computer, so some extra support is recommended. One user recommends placing a CD jewel case underneath for support. I think the adapter would feel a little more secure if it had a short cable between the Expresscard plug and the Cardbus slot
