Can both read and write information to and from the cards

IOGEAR may have launched an USB 3.0 hub, but that doesn't mean it doesn't have other things to promote and, sure enough, it prepared two card readers as well.

The cheaper of the two is the SuperSpeed USB 3.0 SD/Micro SD Card Reader/Writer (GFR304SD), which looks like a flash drive and supports a whole bunch of card formats. It has a price of $16.95 (12.66 Euro).

The other card reader, SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Multi-Card Reader/Writer, is called GFR381, has its own product page (here) and costs $37.95 (28.35 Euro).

It should be noted that these devices can read 59 different memory card formats.

Furthermore, the GFR381 (the second one) can hold more than one card at the same time.

Finally, like the aforementioned hub, these two have backwards compatibility with USB 2.0 and 1.1 too.
