Other than that I've never heard of a drive bay device that attaches via a front USB port, your spec's are insufficient. You might find a reader that is compatible with 1GB Type M xD cards but not compatible with 1GB Type H xD cards. Perhaps you have no need for 2GB xD cards, but they exist (I have one), so you may want to make sure that the reader doesn't have a 1GB max. card size limit. I think the OP wants a reader that also has a USB port, not one that connects via a port on the front of the reader. The device would connect through a port on the MB. Hello, Bill: Yes, I believe that you're correct. I obtained such an item (a generic one, featuring USB 2.0 "Hi-Speed"), via eBay, a few years ago. However, as my AT mainboard's (Tyan S1830S "Tsunami") headers only support USB 1.1, I attached the reader/writer to my PCI USB card's internal socket. I needed to use a Stratitec USBM4EXT "mini hub," also, as the device's card slots required a separate cable, from its USB port; the latter is really handy, where USB "key drives" are concerned. Overall, it's quite convenient and saves some desktop space (and frees up a USB connector), that had been taken by its external counterpart. Cordially, John Turco |
