Title: Fast with SD, OK with CF
Review: This might be the fastest USB CF reader today (is it?) but it isn't as fast as I hoped.Using HDTach, I could read a couple fast UDMA CF's at 18.1 MB/sec with this reader.The same CF's connected though a CF-SATA adapter, read at 42 MB/sec and 36 MB/sec.A hard drive connected through USB can be read at about 35 MB/sec.Oddly, performance for SD was quicker. I was able to get 19MB/sec with this reader. That's close enough to the max speed of any SD today, far as I know. (CF can be faster than SD, today.)It's a good product, just not as fast with CF as one might expect. If you want faster, consider a firewire reader if you have firewire, or a UDMA CF-ATA or CF-SATA adapter if you have some patience to get them to work properly, and know how to connect them to your computer.Another option for laptops is a cardbus UDMA CF reader. Delkin sells one. But may be difficult to get working with Vista or OSX.Delkin Cardbus 32 Bit High Speed Compact Flash Card Adapter, UDMA Compatible
