I hope this is the most purchased affiliate link he's ever had 😂😂
I always find that people are obsessed with speed, saving time is an interesting concept. I can save 1 min here, 1 min there, but I can waste hour researching gear. My life is not hectic enough to warrant a new sd card reader. Looks like a nice product, would it change my life, nope, but maybe it would help another. Thanks for your honest 8 min review...now I have to rush to make up for the time I watched this video...lol. ;)
They should put the reader inside a 15x15x15cm solid tungsten block so there's less temptation to bring it on the mountains. It would be more oriented towards use at home.
Totally agree. There's not enough accessories for wildlife videographers, that working from home.
Take it easy! Someone needs to stay back at home in Toronto to chronicle the adventures and drama of the local house sparrows, starlings and pigeons.
Say goodbye to future freebies from PGYTech, LOL
It could be that the pauses in upload speed were from your PC buffering as it wrote all that data. You have a fairly old machine, I believe. This reader still seems pretty fast
Depending on the disk you are transferring to on your pc, you may be running out of cache which may explain the slow down on the transfer.
Another video I didn't need to see, but had such fun watching.
Trying to read the titles of the books on the bookshelf. Could you stop down for less toneh in an episode? Physical books are fascinating.
Probably a few flat earth books in there somewhere. Maybe one on leprechauns or unicorns?
Hard covers of 'Monkey Strength' in twenty languages. And the French audio book version too.
“How to Live with Rats”
Physical books exist ☝️
It's mostly gay erotica and flat earth books 😂
Oh man did I laugh. This was such a great video. From like 6:40 on, I was keeled over laughing. The dream list was hysterical... "We're focused on speed and yewwsing it" "Mine's made out of linen"... Those two lines were pure comedy gold dude. Great video. Keep em coming
Au contraire, there is such a thing as a "USB card." Back when laptop computers were much thicker than they are nowadays, they had a port for ExpressCards. So, for example, as such computers likely didn't have USB-3 ports, you could add a pair of USB-3 ports by buying a USB-3 ExpressCard, which you could reasonably refer to as a "USB card."
I love how the product is out of focus half the time yet we know it was probably intentional.
The point of it seems to be the card holder slots. Quite useful if you, like me, leave your memory cards everywhere. If it's waterproof all the better.
Hi Casey, Thank you for your channels. I have learned quite a lot from your videos. You are hilarious. Keep them coming.
depends on what drive and type, your writing to. and the port ovcourse. usb 4 or thunderbolt, is going to be the fastest ports.
CFast2 over all. Except for price. Those suckers are damn expensive!
The speed bumps are likely your computer writting from memory to disk. Are you using SSD drives for this, or the old spinners?
SSD. I'm not on MS DOS.
Just woke up in 2024? Its not 2006 anymore
The slow down in speed with card may be your C drive 100% usage issue.
Many people claim windows is fault , I found at least Films and TV app tend to cause it more. Some sort of code conflict. My computer is chronic for SD card swapping times.
I dont get the whole comparison except SD vs CF (A/B)
If i use SD cards on a regular basis, i will have a fast one internally such as in my 2021 MacBook Pro with M1 (Pro…) going 250-270MB/s write and read, so mostly the card is the limiting factor especially for writing.
I have a basic, small SD/micro SD combined card reader with short USB-C cable and even on my iPad its pretty much fast enough, as well when 2 cards are inserted.
On the MacBook or any other fast USB C port the UHS II (Sony Tough) card is still in read speeds around 200-220MB/s, so barely slower than my internal card reader.
In fact i LOVE this tiny reader… i have a affordable, „slow“ 512GB micro SD always inserted as backup on the go and use otherwise mainly a fast but „small“ 128GB UHS II SD card in the camera, rarely a 256GB micro SD via adapter from a GoPro.
I actually liked it for outdoor travel until you mentioned the chemical smell. But seeing I never hike with a laptop I have no need for a card reader.
Up and down ramps in file transfer are because you probably have cheap SSD in your computer which cannot handle sustained speed.
So, if you read the basics of the website.... Ejection pin for Mobile phone SIM cards/removal of camera plates.
As for the "No sign of which way to insert"? The card will only go in one way. There's being critical for actual issues and then there's being critical just for the sake of it.
Theres now a 3.2 for speed...
If you have been out shooting, you can literally minimise one of the things that carry up valuable space in a backpack.
I thought it looked like a magazine from a pea shooter. These speeds make me happy I'm mostly a photographer! LOL! Have a rockin' day!
Hi Casey, Apologies if I missed it, but have you tried a powered USB port hub? Significantly helps as it provides dedicated power to all your SSD, SD card, USB A/C connections, rather than them having to rely on the limited electric current from your PC's USB/C ports. There is no comparison when transferring large MP4 or RAW files from cards to hard drives. 👍
ProGrade dual slot.
You done killed the whole plan for selling those things in less than a minute😅😅😅😅😅😅
thanks for keeping the device in focus all the time. no.
the black electronics YES that's my pet peeve too. I always look for white or red or blue, anything but black if there is an option. I have problems plugging black cables into black jacks, distinguishing tiny black buttons with even smaller black icons. I put white paint on some of those tiny buttons just so that I can find them. My camera is great in low light, not me. My lenses are sharp not my eyes. LOL
Yes blacks are annoying. 😂. Fire hydrant humpers
Given the speeds you described, the speed bumps are likely from reaching just above the limit of sustained write speed of your SSD.
Most SSDs have an internal cache made of much faster storage in order to operate quicker in typical scenario, which is flushed to the main storage cells. That one can be pretty slow on some models, like 150MB/s.
i have a kingston cardreader with a very satisfying click
5:10 You probably ran out of the buffer of your storage.
Nice speed.
I’ve been waiting for this
You gotta do a video on your PC specs now.
these tests will eventually show that nothing matters except for one thing, how fast your actual sdcard is. sdcards, memory cards are something like uhs ii is on the order of 100-200 mbps, while a simple cheap $2 usb card reader will be able to reach close to the usb speed which is about 10gbps. Nothing matters! It's all the card. Everything else is so much faster than the card that it doesn't matter. The ultra pro kodak 256gb ($169 for that card) still only reads 300mb/s at spec and less in real life.
that pgytech reader has as much functionally as a 1 inch card reader that costs $2. Good grief.
I too did a lot of these tests and eventually started to read the specs because I didn't understand why nothing seemed to matter all the read speeds were the same no matter what dongle I used.
I think some of the bottleneck is your computer. I also tried this one and found it to be cumbersome as well and exchanged it for another, smaller unit. I would post a link to the one I have but I don't think it'll show up. I've found that for $100 I can buy a couple smaller, more focused card carriers and more SD cards. I almost never have a need to transfer files out in the field. When/ if I do, my laptop has a built in card reader so... If I did all or most of my editing on an iPad, this might come in handy but other than that, I'm not sure what's the point in carrying a card reader everywhere you go?
May the Toneh be with you!!! 🤣🤣🤣
If they want speed you have to have an USB Fire-wire or USB Hyperlink. Problem: Your computer needs to support it.
I'll take "things that don't exist" for $200.
20+13 = 36. Gotcha.
glad I'm not the only one who hides my huge head for the camera to focus on something else
is there a device that allows you plug a SD card into a SDD or portable hard drive that will automatically transfer the contents of the card to the mass storage device with no pc/laptop/phone needed?
WD My Passport Wireless SSD is likely the answer to your problem 😉
@@dunnymonster I looked that up, but there is no mention of the ability to insert a SD card, and have the contents automatically moved to the ssd
@@donaldobrien9171I've got an older 500GB version of the WD My Passport which has the SD card slot built into the drive chassis. You simply pop the card in and press the transfer button and it copy's the entire SD card to the drive. You can then wirelessly view the drive contents using the App on your phone or just plug it into your computer via USB just like any external HDD to access the images later. The newer version likely has a SSD so it's probably a lot faster, mine has a spinning HDD in it and takes a long time to transfer from SD to HDD if you are moving a lot of images. Still, it's a good back up solution and has it's own internal lithium battery so no cables required.
Just came to say high from vegetable popo.good stuff. I dont own a camera...yet., good times.
wtf is wrong with that dude? 😂😂😂
❤
Id watch you climb monkey mountain.. sounds like a good time
Did not know how putting an SD card inside a slot could be fun. Yes, I see it now...click*
Are you the lead singer of Alien Ant Farm?
👍👍👍👍👍
Affiliashit.. 🎉Thanks mister
It looks like they sent you a prototype. They could send me one, but it would cost them $100 U. S. to do so. It's a good concept, bad implementation. It needs more card styles for reading and also at least 1T of memory. Also a standard USB plug, not a cord. They could include a cord as an extra that would fit in a pocket. A can of air freshener should be included. I like that they have card holders built in. It should have a snap type lid to hold the cards in place. Also, the cover needs to be able to be taken off. Not a bad first try, now let's get serious with the commercial version.
❤❤❤

Someone please collaborate with Kasey to design tech with better UI/UC. Everything seems to have come out of Jony Ives Form-F*-Function Design School. Ports get labeled in 6 pt dark grey font or with an inscrutable icon on a black device (looking at you Anker).
Having all your cards in one place is convenient until you lose it (out in the field). Better to have your cards in different places in case the unthinkable happens.
First
Hey! I'm the "First" guy. You did good. I won't sleep tonight.
Love the show Kasey! Look forward to it every day.
Aw man,@@theobgshow, I wasn't trying to take a restful nights sleep from you, I just figured you needed a break for a day. You'll be right back at it, first-ier than ever. I believe in you.
@@adamgallo7029 I understand. I appreciate your kindness, and to be honest , I'd rather it was you than anybody else. Enjoy your First!
I will be back. 😀😂
When its rubbery from the outside, it bears the risk as a Chinese device to get sticky to the touch after a very few years. Many Chinese manufacturers have not mastered the art of creating never getting sticky rubber.
all rubber will do that no matter where it is made Slick, get educated
lol that smell just means it's fresh out the factory- they made sure to give you the freshest one. on a serious note you really should put that thing outside for a couple days let the fumes dissipate, not a joke, please just do that- i don't want you to get cancer
CHINA
Looks like PGYTech is on the go bankrupt train. Sending CC something to review.
they are far from it Slick
@@silbay the joke is CC bashes products he's sent to review so only a company wanting to go bankrupt would send him anything. If you don't get the jokes, don't reply in the comments.
I cant even see the product. Give it more toneh. I only see eyes and teeth
