Universal Serial Bus (USB) 8-in-1 Media Reader & Writer

 

Though we live in a digital age, we are long away from a convergence of digital storage devices. With a dozen different mechanisms employed for dozens of different devices -- CompactFlash cards for your digital camera, SmartMedia for your MP3 player, IBM Microdrives for you PDA and proprietary Memory Sticks for your toffee-nosed Sony gadget -- interfacing all such devices with the home computer or office server can be a convoluted affair of cables and adapters and software and drivers.

Enter Belkin's Universal Serial Bus (USB) 8-in-1 Media Reader & Writer, a smallish, stylish hub offering a single Plug and Play destination for 8 (obviously) different portable storage mediums. It offers transfer speeds up to 40 times faster than through a serial port and is powered through the computer's USB port (so there's no need for AC adapters or batteries).

It also offers simple, drag-and-drop transfers for easy file management, editing, backup, etc., to and from multi-multimediums.
