Basic features that I bought it for:1. Small, lightweight, and short corded as to squeeze-fit onto laptop USB port connector with the adjacent one being used as well.
2. Handle SDHC (secondary) and Memory Stick pro Duo (primary) memory cards.
Result:
Fits great, two USB Disks are identified immediately upon insertion (Windows XP)
4GB SDHC card (Sandisk Ultra II) works perfectly, but is very slow as described in another Amazon Review.Write-speed is about 1.25 MB/sec
4GB Memory Stick Pro Duo (Sandisk Ultra II).Works perfectly and transfers at what appears to be flash limited speeds.Write-speed is about 9 MB/sec and read-speed is about 15 MB/sec measured by timing transfer of a 150MB file between the flash and the computer disk.
Very odd that it's so much slower with the SDHC than with the Memory Stick memory, but fortunately for me the primary use is for the Memory Sticks.
