TRANSCEND Card Reader Rdf5 USB3.0 Black

The RDF5 card reader provides fast data transfers via a USB 3.1 Gen 1 interface and supports SDHC/SDXC and microSDHC/SDXC memory cards. Its ultra-compact design allows direct plugging into a desktop or notebook USB Type-A port for quick file sharing and use as a removable USB storage device.

Advantages

The reader accepts both SD and microSD cards in separate slots and offers much higher transfer speeds than USB 2.0 thanks to USB 3.1 Gen 1. An LED indicator shows card insertion and data transfer activity. Its small size and plug-and-play operation make it convenient to carry and use without additional drivers. Transcend also provides RecoveRx data recovery software for restoring deleted photos, documents, music, and videos.

Key specifications

• Interface: USB 3.1 Gen 1 (Type-A)
• Supported cards: SDHC/SDXC, microSDHC/microSDXC
• Card slots: Dual slots (SD and microSD) — not for simultaneous card use
• Compatibility: Desktop and notebook computers with USB Type-A port
• Indicator: LED for card insertion and data transfer
• Software: RecoveRx data recovery utility (provided by manufacturer)

How to use

Plug the RDF5 directly into a computer USB Type-A port. Insert either an SD or microSD card into the appropriate slot (do not insert both cards at the same time). The LED will indicate card recognition and data transfer activity. Access the card from your operating system’s file manager to copy, move, or open files. No additional drivers are typically required for plug-and-play operation.

Recommendations

Use the RDF5 with compatible SDHC/SDXC or microSDHC/microSDXC cards and avoid inserting both cards simultaneously. For best transfer performance, connect to a USB 3.1 Gen 1 port on the host computer. Consider using the included RecoveRx software if you need to recover deleted files.
