Convenient for reading different media and integrated into the tower
It's a perfect expedition nickel
After a lot of research between the different internal card readers, I chose this one for its range of readers, including Micro-SD.
I am very happy with the result because it is discreet on the case: 2 front panels, white and black are provided.
The icing on the cake is that it allows Bluetooth connection.
The hardware installation was easy, even if I had to buy a 5.25">3.5" rack adapter because the front panel of my case did not have this format originally. On the computer side I didn't have to do anything: everything was running on Windows 10.
The card reader works but the bluetooth is not recognized. Manufacturer's website: no support. Other forums report the problem.
I'm keeping it because given the price and the fact that I had to go through a lot to assemble it, I'm not going to waste time removing it and returning it without packaging...
I strongly advise against this old product and still sold with a misleading W10 compatibility.
I have to admit that I had a little hesitation but I don't regret my choice at all!
Everything is there, most of the cards read on it and especially the micro-SD in direct which are those that I use the most....
The icing on the cake is a Bluetooth connection that I also use a lot which allows me to free up a port on the front for 18.94€, no need to think about it anymore!
Installation without problems. Bluetooth works on the first try (OpenSuse Leap 42.3 + KDE). The connection with some smartphones is sometimes capricious (but not more than HP laptop with W7!). I had bought it for the card reader which works without any problem. At this price, with Bluetooth, it's a good product.
