Review: Excellent BUT... - There are always pros and cons... Changing from GH5 to GH6 cameras meant CFe-B cards and a new reader - I bought the generic one in the pic - from desertcart. It was great - then it was horrible - extremely slow. So, I bought a new one and because I like PROGRADE cards I bought the PROGRADE reader - it is excellent - really fast. THEN I thought - maybe?... and I tested the 'Generic' using the PROGRADE cable - it was great again - a shade faster the the PROGRADE. I did some tests... First CrystalDiskmark - results in the pics. The slowest one is the Generic reader with a 'generic' usb C cable from my charging station (this is why I was getting really frustrated) The '1039' image is the PROGRADE reader with the included cable and the ever so slightly faster '1043' image is the Generic reader with the PROGRADE cable. I shoot video as 3 camera setups and with a 4th as Run & Gun usually between 50GB and 100GB per camera. I used the Run & Gun cards for the tests. There was 50GB data in 234 files on the cards I tested, my 'work' drive is a 2TB Pcie NVMe card in a Dell Precision 3650 with 64GB ram. * The 'Generic' CFe B card reader with the PROGRADE cable transferred in 1min 23secs * The PROGRADE CFe B card reader with the PROGRADE cable transferred in 1min 57secs So, even in the real world the 'Generic' shades it. The next test I did was with SDXC UHSii cards - this time it was the PROGRADE reader Vs an Integral reader. This was using the same file set (I shoot the Run & Gun stuff to both cards in the GH6) * The Integral card reader transferred in 3mins 31secs * The PROGRADE card reader transferred the files in 4mins 4secs The BIG lesson for me in all of this is that not all cables are equal and I need to find the cables that came with the 'Generic' reader and stop using what I have just lying around!!! Despite discovering my foolishness I'm very happy to have made the purchase. The PROGRADE reader is well built, the cables are the correct connectivity, it looks as if it will be durable. I'm also happy that is says PROGRADE on it - emotions eh!? Once I find the other cables I'll have two fast CFe readers and get the ingests done in half the time - always assuming the usb busses on the PC aren't using the same channels... hope this helps Review: Great but be careful - Excellent in nearly every respect. Fast and reliable. Only point to watch is for is the magnet, you don't want that near a storage drive, silly idea. ## Features - DO MORE OF WHAT YOU LOVE:​ ​Because the ​ProGrade Digital™​ USB 3.2 Gen 2 ​CFexpress™​ ​Type B and SD​™​ dual-slot memory card reader transfers your data at lightning speed - up to 1.25GB/s (10Gb/s) from both cards simultaneously - you can spend more time creating and less time waiting on downloads. - DESIGNED FOR LIFE ON THE ROAD:​ ​Wherever you go, your included adhesive metal plate attaches the magnetic card reader to your laptop to create a compact mobile workstation.

Thanks** A: I was concerned about the magnet as the reader will be kept with other photographic equipment inc back up hard drives. However - quick look and it's really simple to remove: in the centre of the base rubber is the product label, peel it off and put to one side sticky side up / remove the tiny crosshead screw and discard / using a small screwdriver gently prise the magnet off the base (held in place with sticky tape) finally put the product label back - JOB DONE **Q: I use delkin black cf express cards, will this reader be compatible, normally i wouldn't worry but have read of issues with other manufacturers.** A: Hello, Thank you for your inquiry. Our readers are compatible with other brand memory cards. Regards, ProGrade Digital **Q: Has anyone else found the cf card gets extremely hot when in use? as in almost too hot to touch? (the sd card is fine). maybe mine is faulty?** A: Mine is ok no heating problems, I use it to take full RAW files with my Canon 5r, my card is a ProGrade 128gb1700MB/Bs with a ProGradeCFxpress B SDUHDII reader . Cannot comment if you are using 4k/video Hope this helps **Q: Does this work with cfast cards?** A: Hello, Thank you for your inquiry. No, that reader only works with CFexpress Type B and SD cards. To read CFast you would need our CFAST AND SD UHS-II DUAL-SLOT MEMORY CARD READER BY PROGRADE DIGITAL | USB 3.2 (PG02).

Fast and reliable. Only point to watch is for is the magnet, you don't want that near a storage drive, silly idea. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Stackable Memory Card Reader with compatibility issues *by I***A on 22 May 2022* Stackable Memory Card Reader with compatibility issues Packing Comes in a sealed, quality cardboard box containing: 1 x card reader, dual slot CFexpress B and SD UHS-II 1 x USB C to USB C cable 1 x USB A to USB C cable 1 x metal sticky pad 1 x User Guide 1 x Registration / software info card In use This reader has a magnetic base. If you have more than one ProGrade card reader you can securely stack them on top of each other. You could stick the metal sticky pad provided to a laptop lid and then attach the reader to the back of your laptop screen. Seems a bit gimmicky and you only get one sticky pad. As a card reader this will read any brand of CFexpress B or SD card. Warning number 1. If you have ProGrade cards, you must have a ProGrade card reader to use ProGrade’s Refresh Pro software. Warning number 2. If you have a different brand of CFexpress card and need to update that card’s firmware you will need that brand’s card reader. You cannot update the firmware on other CFexpress B branded cards using a ProGrade card reader. So, in general you need to match the brand of card reader to the brand of the CFexpress B card for maximum compatibility. An expensive mistake I made not knowing about firmware updates for CFexpress B cards. What I liked 1) Well-made card reader, should survive travel well 2) CFexpress B and SD card slots 3) USB cables provided What I disliked 1) Slots are not spring loaded; you have to push in and pull out the cards 2) Does not support XQD cards, my camera can read and write to both CFexpress and XQD cards why do card readers in general only work one or the other? 3) Not fully compatible with CFexpress cards from other brands 4) Inner packaging is black plastic which is not accepted by my road-side recycling scheme 5) Magnetic base, I would want to keep this away from hard disk drives. Overall, a good card reader that is a must for 100% compatibility with ProGrade CFexpress B cards. Given the lack of compatibility with other brands of cards and lack of XQD card support I would rate this as three stars, for users with only ProGrade CFexpress B cards I would rate as five stars hence four stars as an average overall. I hope you found this review useful and save on making potential expensive purchases. ## Frequently Bought Together - CFexpress Type B and SD UHS-II Dual-Slot Memory Card Reader by ProGrade Digital | USB 3.2 Gen 2 for Professional Filmmakers, Photographers & Content Creators - ProGrade Digital Memory Card - CFexpress 4.0 Type B for Cameras | Optimized for Express Transfer of Files & Large Storage | 512GB Gold Series - Canon Battery Pack LP-E6P --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/188601710-cfexpress-type-b-and-sd-uhs-ii-dual-slot-memory](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/188601710-cfexpress-type-b-and-sd-uhs-ii-dual-slot-memory) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-07*
