This memory card reader is a very nice, sturdy unit and is well-designed, unlike a lot of pretty cheesy little memory-card readers I've seen. It uses an internal USB 2.0 header and a floppy cable to connect to the computer. The unit is very fast and works flawlessly in Linux. I needed a floppy drive just to flash my BIOS and I thought that since that's all the use that drive would get, I'd get a floppy with a memory card reader in it too as my digital camera gets a lot of use and a card reader would be nice. It was a smart move as my case has only one 3.5" slot and the card reader gets heavy usage. I recommend this little unit very highly for anybody who would otherwise just get a floppy drive as this is one of only a few models that has a floppy drive + memory card reader.
