 Worked fine while it lasted! December 1, 2008
Doctor Chrysologus (USA)
Maybe I was expecting too much, but this product failed after two years with infrequent use. It worked as advertised but then one day I tried to use it, and well - nothing - it was gone!
 Well worth the money! November 30, 2008
Megan (Salt Lake City, UT United States)
Very easy to use and very fast at transferring data. So far I have only used the CF reader, but it worked very well. I'm not sure if there is a way, but I just wish the stand was removable.

A Must Have For All Digital Camera and Music Player Owners October 25, 2008

SanDisk is a well known manufacturer of flash memory and associated devices. Memory flash cards are now part of nearly anything electronic that stores user data. From digital cameras to digital music players (even cell phones), the memory flash card is the way these devices record their data.
The SanDisk SDDR-89-A15 is one of the products in their "ImageMate" memory reader line. It is a 12-in-1 reader, which integrates with your personal computer flawlessly. No drivers are needed to connect this device with your Windows PC (assuming you are running Windows 2000 or newer). It is a USB 2.0 compliant device, but is backwards compatible with USB 1.1 (although at slower transfer rates). The drive does come with a driver utility disk, in case you wish to take advantage of the one-touch transfer button, on the top (or side, if you have it mounted vertically) of the drive. This button will allow you to transfer, print, e-mail, or view the contents of your flash card, by simply pushing the button. However, most of us do not have much use for this feature, and therefore adding the extra software to your computer is completely unnecessary.
The SanDisk SDDR-89-A15 ImageMate 12-in-1 Reader is compatible with the follow flash card formats:
1. CompactFlash
2. CompactFlash II
3. SD(tm)
4. SDHC(tm)
5. miniSD(tm)
6. miniSDHC(tm)
7. MultiMediaCard(tm)
8. MMCplus(tm)
9. MMCmobile(tm)
10. RS-MMC(tm)
11. RS-MMC Dual Voltage(tm)
12. Memory Stick(tm)
13. Memory Stick Duo(tm)
14. Memory Stick PRO(tm)
15. Memory Stick PRO Duo(tm)
16. SmartMedia(tm)
17. xD
18. xD Type M
19. xD Type H
Some other card formats can still be used with this reader, such as the MicroSD cards, but would require the use of an adapter.
Overall I am extremely happy with this card reader. Simply plugging it into an open USB port, on my Windows XP computer, prompted Windows to detect new hardware, and it installed drivers within Windows and automatically added 4 new drive letters in Windows Explorer. My only complaint is that sometimes Windows seems to lose track of this card reader, after the computer has gone to sleep. The drive letters still appear in "My Computer" and Windows Explorer, but when I insert a card it is not detected by Windows. I can't really blame SanDisk for this problem though, as I'm sure it has something to do with the operating system, or the power management of my PC itself.
For those of you that are still plugging your digital cameras into your computer, using a USB cable, stop wasting the batteries in your camera and simply purchase this great flash card reader. You can then pop out your memory card, insert it in the reader, and you will have instant access to all of your photos immediately. And the transfer rate between this reader and your computer will be so much better than the time it takes to transfer data from your camera to your computer. I highly recommend this reader, and plan to enjoy the convenience of mine for many years to come.
