The fastest card!

Terry White on the CFExpressPro+ PCIe

In this world of Faster, Faster, Faster, the Synchrotech ExpressCard Reader ($65) will become a permanent addition to my camera/computer bag. If you have a notebook with an ExpressCard slot, I highly recommend this reader. It kicks the crap out of USB 2.0 readers.

Pretty glowing reviews, and with pre-UDMA enabled CompactFlash cards at that. Initial review: True Express Card PCIe Speed for Photographers. Second look: What a difference a card makes.

Full Throughput Front Loading PCIe to ExpressCard Drive

The EXP54-CR-PCEIF1 PCIe to ExpressCard Drive Read-Writer Front enables PCIe based desktop computers to utilize ExpressCard applications. Unlike many competing devices, EXP54-CR-PCEIF1 specially manufactured highly shielded internal cable allows for true PCIe ExpressCard 2.5Gbps operations! The specially shielded cable is unique to this device. The PCIe 1X configuration allows for the full 250MB/s (megabytes in unidirectional mode) throughput for PCIe based ExpressCards, while the USB 2.0 configuration allows USB 2.0 ExpressCards to operate at their 60MB/s speed. This industrial grade PCIe to ExpressCard Drive accepts both ExpressCard 34 and 54 cards, and is completely transparent to any card inserted. Plug the included USB cable into an available port (preferably internal header type), plug the reader into an open PCIe slot, install the 3.5inch drive bay enclosure, and installation is complete! The PCIe to ExpressCard Drive itself needs no drivers. The 3.5" drive bay enclosure provides an axtra USB 2.0 port.
