    Card Reader Suggestions

    My main rig's Atech Flash XM-5U has been crapping out on me lately... it will freeze up, and being internal, the only way around that is to reboot (or open the case and replug it). Grr....

    Usually Atech makes good readers... this one is cheaper though, so that may be part of it.

    This time, I want a good internal 3.5" reader. SDHC and Compact flash are musts, XD is huge plus as well. Must have a front USB 2.0 port as well. I don't need any other ports or the like. My case is black so a black bezel option is a must.

    Suggestions for a decent internal card reader?

      Check PSU, check MBO, probably excessive (over or under ) voltage on +5V rail...

        None of my other USB devices seem to have issues... but last I checked my 5v was good. when it's off the drive is still lit up... so usb must be also hooked to 5vsb on the this rig (it's a tyan K8WE).

          Some mbo's switch their (ALL?) load from standby 5V - to +5V rail, when they're on...
