ProGrade Digital PGRWCFXSDANA Reviews

Makes a Great Coffee Warmer

I've been using this for about a year and my only comment is that it gets HOT even when just plugged into USB, not even during file transfer.

A good buy

What immediately stands out is performance. With USB 3.2 Gen 2 delivering transfer speeds up to approximately 10Gbps (around 1.25GB/s), this reader moves large RAW files and high-bitrate video with remarkable efficiency. For anyone working with CFexpress Type B—especially on cameras like your X-H2—the reduction in download time is not just convenient, it fundamentally improves workflow. The dual-slot design is equally practical. Supporting both CFexpress Type B and UHS-II SD cards in a single unit eliminates the need for multiple readers cluttering your workspace. It’s a small detail, but one that reflects thoughtful design—exactly what professionals appreciate in daily use. Physically, the unit is compact, durable, and clearly built for real-world environments. The inclusion of a magnetic base plate for mounting to a laptop is a subtle but brilliant touch, creating a clean, mobile workstation whether you're in a studio or working out of the back seat of a vehicle. In use, the reader is consistent and reliable. There are no surprises—just fast, stable transfers and dependable performance session after session. And in professional work, that kind of predictability is everything. In summary, this is not just a card reader—it is a workflow tool. It removes friction from the process, allowing you to spend less time waiting and more time doing what matters most: creating.

Is using this faster to transfer than to use the built in SD card reader in latest macbook pro? Or same speed?
Asked by: Andrew
The transfer speed of the reader is only as fast as the speed of the card. The latest M3 MacBook Pro SD reader supports UHS-II speeds i.e., up to 312 MB/s. The ProGrade Digital CFexpress Type B & UHS-II SDXC Dual-Slot USB 3.2 Gen 2 Card Reader supports speeds up to 1.25 GB/s for both SD and CFexpress Type B cards, a much faster speed than what the latest MacBook is capable of.

can this read compact flash as used in canon 5D Mark III?
Asked by: Mike
No, it will not. The ProGrade CFexpress Type B & UHS-II SDXC Dual-Slot USB 3.2 Gen 2 Card Reader is only compatible for use with CFexpress Type B or SD/SDHC/SDXC memory cards. It is not compatible for use with CompactFlash memory cards. CFexpress and CompactFlash memory cards are two different memory card sizes and are not interchangeable with one another.

My cards get hot just plugged into this reader, even if I'm not downloading them. They get so hot I can't even touch the card for more than a second or two. I know this has been addressed but it seems very extreme to me (and worrying). If there is additional info. on this I'd love to know. Anyone?
Asked by: Terri
I have this reader and the Lexar one, and I have this issue with both. The card gets hot just plugged in, even when I'm not reading from it.
