Posted 1/17/2006 8:00 PM | | | I recently purchased the "MobyMemory High-Speed 2GB mini-SD Card" for my PPC. It came with a free miniSD USB reader stick. Not 100% sure which model it is, as my invoice doesn't specify, but I got only 1 hit with the Search option: http://www.mobymemory.com/proddetail.asp?prod=Reader%5FUSB2%5FminiSD%5F001 I have tried it out and it appears not to work. Although the reader gets recognized, drivers auto-installed, and a new drive letter appears, the drive appears to be invalid. If I try switching to it, the drive is not recognized. I thought that perhaps the miniSD card itself needed formatting, so I re-inserted it in the miniSD > SD card sleeve and inserted it in my computer's regular 6-in-1 card reader; the card was recognized just fine, and I was able to copy files onto it. Re-trying it in the USB reader stick, I still got the invalid drive error. I tried all USB ports available to me here (3 on one laptop, 4 on another), two of which I know to be USB2 - no-go on any of them. Am I missing something? Could the reader just be faulty? Any way to determine this? |

Got one in June last year and it has worked great for 8months, but now has just stopped working, just is not recognised when inserted I knew it was faulty as all the cards I use in it work fine in a SD card adapter, also I tried it in several Pc's to rule out any OS faults.
Trying to get a replacement now.
see if you can try yours with a different card and then on a different PC or OS
I find these very usefull card readers and mainly use them with my Notebook
