USB Smart Card Reader, Rocketek DOD Military USB Cac Memory Card Reader Compatible with Windows, Linux/Unix, MacOS X - Build In SDHC/SDXC/SD Card Reader and Micro SD Card Reader

Great little CAC reader. I owned one other CAC reader that died on me within a month of use. Since my last one died I had to search Amazon for the handful of simliar CAC readers for sale at varying price points. I chose this reader based on price and added card reader functionality. This one has had zero issues with drivers, hardware, software, etc. It's small and easily fits into my laptop bag and is relatively unobtrusve when plugged in. The added functionality of being a storage card reader is great (I've tested on SD and microSD with no issue).Highly reccomend.

I picked this up to replace a larger, bulkier cabled smartcard reader. Nothing against that other smartcard reader, as it works well, but this one travels easier. I travel 10-12 days per month and I do need to utilize my smartcard upon occasion (and the Surface doesn't have a reader built in).I will say that I haven't utilized any of the other media reader functionality of this, so I really cannot speak to that, but the size and the fact that it reads my smartcard without issue makes this a great gadget at a great price.

I bought it to use my military CAC reader from home, and in the beginning it didn't appear to work, but I decided to give it another chance by trying to connect it many more times, and it worked. I am giving five stars because in the end it worked. It serves the purpose that it is intended for.

Been using intermittently with a convertible tablet/laptop computer. I like it because it does in the usb A and stays together without blocking USB C ports.Nothing has broke, but the plastic where the card slides in is thin enough and flexes enough that it seems likely to break or at least crack in the next year or so.

Nice addition to the computing accessories we have. Recommend!

The product works fine as a CAC reader. The only problem is that the device blocks the usb ports to its immediate right and left. I had to purchase a multiport usb hub, so that I could use this device and and a mouse at the same time. It is not functional with my laptop with out added accessories

My first unit was purchased in 2017. Someone liked my card reader as much as me and stole it. Because I liked the small size and reliability of it, I purchasd a second unit. I never had issues with the first one, but my current readers seems to have a short in it. I disconnects when it wants and sometimes doesn't connect at all. This can be very frustrating when trying to do online training. I don't unplug from my computer as it is stationary. I will purchase another smart card reader but not this brand.

does what it needs to do
