WARNING THIS WILL CORRUPT YOUR FILES!
I am a professional commercial photographer. I shoot somewhere in the neighborhood of 15k images a quarter for Nike and fortunately over the years I have learned from my mistakes to triple back up my images while I shoot. I copy to both cards in camera (Canon 1dx) and am tethered to a computer where they are stored and backed up to a G-drive (great product).
Occasionally while on location or in studio I use a card reader to add another level of back up. I had my digital tech throwing away cards that kept delivering corrupt files until I realized (silly me) that the fault was with this Lexar reader. Granted, the files on the card will not always be corrupted by this reader and you can redo the process to get them again but sometimes you don't have time to check every image before you erase the card. I have included a test image to show as an example.
PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT.
