Does what it says on the tin!

I was replacing a duff PSU so I thought I'd update my case and swap out my never-used 3.5" floppy drive for this multi-card reader at the same time.
Installs easy - though check you've got a spare 9-pin USB connector on your motherboard first.
And in use it does its job fine. It takes SDHC cards, btw.
For £9 it's cheap as chips too.

Akasa AK-ICR-01A 3.5" INT MULTI MEM CARD READER
Reviewed by Anonymous Review Posted 25/06/2008
For the benefit of any other first-time users (if having pre-USB2.0 motherboards), it should be made explicit that that reader harness has to connect to a (9-pin) USB2.0 motherboard header, *not* external-type USB. Having anyway purchased a PCI USB2.0 card (with 2 internal, on-card, USB sockets) with it, I then had to search the net for an adaptor harness. Two USB plug - to - 5-pin connector harnesses were found and successfully fitted (one of the ground pins - redundant in this application - had to be pushed back to fit the 4-socket row where the 5th position is a blind 'key'). By the way, PCI cards with a 'motherboard-simulating' 10 or 9 pin header are rare and difficult to find. The unit worked successfully as soon as the electrical interface was completed.

3-1/2 Bay Internal Card Reader
Reviewed by Jay Smith. Review Posted 13/02/2008
Great product. Worked on 1st try. Install required me to drill my own mounting holes in bay frame rails to match the product mount holes. No big deal for me to do. The bummer was the postage & handling fees - £7.60 - almost the cost of the unit. Delivery was 2nd day after the order was placed.
