Card Reader SanDisk PRO-READER USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C Black CF MicroSD SD

The SanDisk PRO-READER Multi-Card reader is a compact USB-C (USB 3.2 Gen 2) device designed for CF, SD and microSD cards. Housed in a black aluminum enclosure, it supports fast media offloads to computers, USB-C iPad devices and compatible docking stations. The reader includes an integrated write-protect switch and a stackable design for organized workspaces.

Advantages

The aluminum body helps dissipate heat during transfers to reduce card overheating. USB-C (10 Gbps) connectivity and included USB-C cable enable high-speed transfers to hosts such as computers, G-RAID drives and compatible iPad models. The integrated write-protect lock prevents accidental overwrites, and the stackable form factor keeps multiple readers stable and tidy during use.

Suitable for

• Photographers and videographers who offload CF, SD and microSD cards
• Content creators working from studio or location with USB-C hosts

How to use

Connect the reader to a USB-C port on your computer, G-RAID drive or compatible iPad using the included USB-C cable. Insert CF, SD or microSD cards into the corresponding slots. Ensure the host device recognizes the media, then copy or move files using your operating system’s file manager or preferred transfer software. Use the write-protect switch on the reader to prevent accidental writes when needed. When finished, safely eject the cards and disconnect the reader before removing media.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use high-quality CF, SD or microSD cards rated for your camera or recorder’s write speed. Avoid prolonged continuous transfers in hot environments; allow intervals between large offloads to help manage card temperature. When using multiple readers, consider pairing them with the SanDisk PRO-DOCK 4 for simultaneous, scalable offloads.
