Delkin Devices Devices CFexpress Type B / SD UHS-II Card Reader Review

The Delkin Devices CFexpress Type B / SD UHS-II Card Reader provides dual-slot functionality for high-speed media, aiming at professionals who utilize both CFexpress Type B and UHS-II SDXC cards. Its USB-C 3.1/3.2 Gen 2 host connection facilitates transfer speeds up to 10 Gb/s, aligning with current fast-transfer requirements for large files. The inclusion of both USB-C to C and USB-C to A cables enhances connectivity options across different systems.

Built with an aluminum enclosure and featuring a weight of 113.4 grams, the reader is designed for durability and portability. Protection features such as built-in card storage with a rubberized end cover and multiple heat sinks suggest attention to both media safety and operational longevity, which can be a critical factor for users regularly handling expensive media.

While offering essential dual-card support and a robust physical design, the reader does not support simultaneous use of both card slots. This might be a consideration for workflows requiring concurrent data management from different card types.
