    It’s great. I wish the usb cable were longer. It’s a special looking connection, so I don’t know if longer options exist.

    Good for desktop, speedier and unlikely any problem with it. The small portable ones (without power plugin) is more convenient but tend to have problem such as unreadable in a sudden.
