Junk
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have used this 5 times........maybe? I just went to use it this AM, where the cord attaches to the box was loose, on further inspection, the metal USB 3 connector had completely detached from the circuit board inside. What a waste of money! Now I have photos to load in from 2 events yesterday, and I have to run out and purchase something else to read my card. It WILL NOT be this brand again!!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friendCopy hard drive info to new larger hard drive
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recent had paid for Total Tech support and took my laptop in to have the old hard drive replaced with a larger drive and have to old files transferred to the new drive. The drive was replaced bu the old files were not copied over. I tried calling the Tech squad to have the problem resolved, but no one answered or returned my call. Hopefully the old files are still on my old drive which I currently have. Please have someone contact me at 303-50-2072. Scott Eicher

Lots of Issues for such a simple tool
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The usb connection is very sensitive, almost like there’s a short in the cable. Touch it too hard, it loses the connection. I have an SD reader built in my Mac and purely have this as a back up and it doesn’t even serve that function. Everything from Insignia is so hit or miss. If reliability is what your after, don’t buy insignia.

Unusable
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Would have to plug and replug the device in to get it to work (from first use onward), might be able to get it working once out of every 10-15 attempts-- computer does not recognize device. Now the device won't work at all and it is too late for me to return it. The build quality is very poor as well. Would not recommend even if this were the last sd card reader on earth.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendEhhh...Not So Great
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not very well made and inconsistent reading cards. I would recommend paying a little more for a better quality product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot recommended
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very poor quality and it gives problems with some sd cards. I would not recommend this item for profesional use.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendThe inside of it broke after about two weeks.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It worked fine until the inside had broken, which made me unable to have it connect to my computer correctly.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendToo slow at transfer
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Slow transfer speed. Will be looking for a much faster item in the near future.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendOwned 4, all equally useless.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm now on my 4th Insignia SD card reader, each one with the same issue. Copying large amounts of files the reader randomly disconnects, freezes, or just disappears. Corrupted a few cards in the process. The only reason I bought this piece of garbage was that it was the only one my local BestBuy sold. Forget that. I'll go with a better brand from now on, lesson learned. Amazon here I come.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot a univesal card reader
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.May be an advance memory card reader but it is not universal card reader. Have number of older memory cards that don't fit this device.

Posted .Hi Radio.
This device reads card on formats SD, Micro-SD, and CompactFlash cards. Any other different formats you would need a different device to use them. Be mindful that older cards might have their data corrupted due to being unused over the years or being stored for a long time.

Wouldn't Recommend
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Returned it the next day. Tried it on several computers & laptops - slow and doesn't stay connected.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendPiece of Sh%t
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If I could give it 0 stars I would. This is the second one I've owned. They both failed in the same way. "Device I/O error" Not the card. I can access it on other devices with reader. Save your money, piece of junk!!! Overpriced too. Go to Amazon and buy an Anker. Cheeper too, and they work.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendWouldn't stay connected
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I ended up returning this due to an issue with constant disconnecting. I tried troubleshooting by using a different USB, checking my ports on my computer, and trying on multiple devices. My SD cards are not corrupted. I ended up picking up a card reader from a local camera store that supports up to uhs-ii speeds
No, I would not recommend this to a friendLess then a week.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had it less then a week and it stopped working. Tried every USB port on my computer and my laptop. Does not recognize it. All drivers are up to date. Used another SD card reader, it works fine.
