Transcend RDF9 USB 3.1 Gen 1 (USB 5Gbps) UHS-II SD & microSD & CompactFlash Card Reader , with Micro USB to USB Type A Cable, TS-RDF9K2

Bought this as a more dedicated way to get media off SD cards rather than one of the more generic multi USB dongles. Fast read and transfer speeds, definitely needed when moving larger video files or batches of photos.

Not much to say, except it's a card reader, seems to work well, speed is alright and it's quite compact. Build quality is about what you'd expect for the price, so that's OK but nothing spectacular.

No installation required, it read the cards instantly. Only issue is how close the slots are to each other, making it difficult to remove one, if both slots are occupied.

At first when i opend it it felt like a toy, plastic. then when i used it I was suprised and pleased , it gets warm but doesn't ever get hot. I could transfere 74GB at a consistant 220MB/s from a lexar 1667x uhs-II card, I could average 110MB/s write to the card for £14.80. Using a sandisk UHS-II standalone card reader I could ger 249MB/s read and 130MB/s write, but that costs over £22 and only lets me connect an sd card or a micro sd with adaptor can't add both and connecting the card is very fidley. The thing is for under £15 you get UHS-II sd card reading capabilty plus you can also add a micro sd card to the other slot and a compact flash card which makes this very good value for money. do know the micro sd card reader is only UHS-I and when transfering internally from the two cards it wili only write at 50MB/s, the uhs-i works fine sending data externally 90MB/s. I give it full marks because for the price it is great value and something I would recommend to friends, dont be put off by it being plastic. For the record I used proper ISO images Of Angel season 5 Box set muliple times to and from both card readers and 2.5" ssd, non of this benchmark nonsense but actual real copies, yeah for a mid range product it deserves a recommendation. Do note this is a usb 3.1 porduct and has input DC +5v 0.9A written on the underneath and it does come with a cable approx 40cm long.

I bought a USB 3.1 expansion board for my old PC and connected this card reader to it under Windows 10. It all works well with no problems on my system. I do not get full performance because of my motherboard being quite old, but it is quicker than using same reader on USB 2.0.

Great card reader, was looking for a new one as my old one wasn't working properly. This has Great transfer speeds, has all the different types of card readers you could need. Perfect for photographers or videographers using different equipment and cards.

works well much better than usb items from ebay full marks

usb C will not send power to device in both orientations I thought the device did not work until I turned usb to other position so is not fully a usb C Device

Facile d’utilisation et efficace

I have found it satisfactory for the first use. I will evaluate its long-term performance. The Sony Tough V90 card provides a consistent transfer speed of 199MB/s when copying directly to a PC SSD. It also supports a 10Gbps port, eliminating any potential bottlenecks.

Fast shipping. Had no issues, worked great

I bought it primarily for the CF card but it also has SD and microSD slots. I purchased the USB C version. Works great for me. Price could be lower.
