A simple plug in, allowed me to preview my pictures I had been trying to view for months. It is a simple plug and play device. As I have a iMAC and the moment I plugged in, it was immediately recognized in Finder

I bought this product because I have a SanDisk 32MG Card and needed a way to transfer photos onto my Mac Mini.
I popped the card into the slot in the Platinum Card Reader and the camera comes right up in reader on my Mac. It was easy to locate all the pictures on the card. The only thing is you have to manually drag the photos to your Mac ... but that's not that big a deal for me. This product was exactly what I was looking for. I recommend

My computer recently crashed and I had to purchase a new one. We accidentally ordered one without a slot for a memory card. As an ETSY shop owner, taking photos of products is essential to my business. The Platinum Slot Memory Card Reader was the perfect solution. I was able to quickly re-open my shop with new listings with the assistance of the product purchased from Best Buy. As always, my experience with Best Buy was 5-Star!

My custom computer had no memory card slots. This item is smoothe, and acts like it is original equipment for my desktop. I mounted it onto the top of my monitor with velcro and it acts like it was welded there. Very strong hold! Great product, great price! 5 out of 5 stars!

It seems to work fine. I have not had to use it often. I was able to transfer files back and forth from the SD card to my computer. It transfers at a decent speed.

The Platinum card reader is perfect for my use. I do digital photography and have cameras and drones that use all three sizes of SD cards. The transfer of 100+ photos is very fast. Also, attaching it to my laptop and reviewing a photo shoot with a client is quick and easy regardless of which SD slot I need to use. It is much faster that older readers I have used.

Absolutely perfect for what I needed it for. We went on our honeymoon in the middle of May to Oregon and Washington and I took my camera with me. When I got back I realized I didn’t have a set up for my SD card and found this one! It has multiple options for multiple readings on different types of cards. I was able to plug it in to my PC and upload all my pictures without issues . I would highly recommend to anyone who uses a camera for photography and not just their phone!

The product is very straightforward to use and seems good quality. The package was better than I expected. It came with a usb type c to usb type a adaptor, really cool thing that they didnt have to do because they could have just had the cable be type a to c but they have type c to c for the people that want that. Really impressed overall with it would recommend if you are in need of a sd card reader.
