Product Description
Viking Components
Guaranteed Compatibility
View a listing of PCs, notebooks, PDAs, digital cameras, or other products that are guaranteed compatible with this Viking product. Making sure you have guaranteed compatibility is very important because of the hundreds of different brands, types, and configurations of memory available. As a result, memory that works in one product doesn't necessarily work in another--and there's nothing more frustrating than buying something you can't use.
View a listing of PCs, notebooks, PDAs, digital cameras, or other products that are guaranteed compatible with this Viking product. Making sure you have guaranteed compatibility is very important because of the hundreds of different brands, types, and configurations of memory available. As a result, memory that works in one product doesn't necessarily work in another--and there's nothing more frustrating than buying something you can't use.
Because compatibility is so critically important, Amazon has forged a strategic relationship with Viking Components and created the Memory Finder. The Memory Finder is a tool that can help you find memory that works with your specific product, taking the guesswork out of buying memory.
Benefits of Additional Memory
Below are listed just a few of the many reasons to purchase additional memory:
Increased Speed: Increasing your computer's memory will speed up access times and translates to faster processing speeds. For example, doubling the memory in your computer often results in 50 percent faster data processing.
Increased Power: Increasing your computer's memory will enable it to process more data. You can have more windows and documents open at the same time. Computer game play becomes faster and more fluid, and high-end graphic programs perform more quickly.
Increased Performance: Increasing your computer's memory can decrease the amount of times your computer crashes. The number one reason for "blue screens" in Windows is because the computer runs out of available memory to carry out a function.
Cost Savings: Adding more memory to your computer can lead to dramatic increases in performance for a relatively low price. In some cases, it can even eliminate the need to purchase a new computer thus saving you hundreds of dollars.

NOT RECOMMENDED,
By A Customer
This review is from: Viking USB Memory Stick Reader (RMSREAD/U) (Personal Computers)
I had nothing but problems with this product. The drivers do not install easily, I had to re-install them a couple of times. I even downloaded the newest drivers from their website. I tried to contact tech support that is supposed to be 24/7 according to the user's guide because I was having problems reading a 8 mb memory stick. They are only open during "regular business hours". I send them an e-mail and part of the reply was that the memory stick presently only reads up to a 64 mb memory stick. I tried to read a 32 mb memory stick and it destroyed the pictures. Luckily I could re-format the stick on my camera so it did not destroy the memory stick-just the pictures. So beware if you do want to purchase this product, that although it does not state this anywhere in the user guide or on their website, it will only read up to a 64 mb memory stick. And like I said, I could only get it to read an 8 mb stick, my 32 mb stick it wiped out. I can not recommend this memory reader...

Check your PC's device manager before you buy this,
By "maryam" (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Viking USB Memory Stick Reader (RMSREAD/U) (Personal Computers)
This device will not work if your PC has the Intel BA/BAM USB controller, so save yourself a major headache and check your PC before you buy. How do you check? Right click on "my computer" click on the "hardware" tab, click on "device manager" then look under "Universal serial bus controllers" and see if the one installed on your computer is a version of the Intel BA/BAM. the problem may be with the Viking device or with the Intel controller, I'm not sure, but I'm giving this device 1 star becase A) This info should have been posted and B) when I talked to tech support at Viking and said "you should post this info" they basically said "not our problem" which I thought was rather unhelpful.

Beware,
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Viking USB Memory Stick Reader (RMSREAD/U) (Personal Computers)
This thing DESTROYS memory sticks. I have 2 64MB cards ruined by this P.O.S. Out of nowhere I got a message that I had removed the device unsafely and it fries the memory stick. Beware
