I was looking for these 2 models. I found that the Lexar Professional Multi-Card 3-in-1 USB 3.1 reader is a better choice because it supports both UHS-I cards up to 170MB/s and UHS-II cards up to 312MB/s read speeds. However, the SanDisk PRO-Reader SD and microSD (SDPR5A8) supports UHS-I cards at a slightly higher speed of 190MB/s but UHS-II cards are not natively supported and are limited to 100MB/s read speed. Also the Lexar is cheaper and smaller. Only the SanDisk PRO-Reader Multi-Card (SDPR3A8) model supports both UHS-I and UHS-II speeds with similar results as the Lexar Professional reader, but at a much higher price.
That is a good analysis. I mainly use the SanDisk as I have no use for UHS-II cards. It has started giving me issues with reading cards on first insert. I have to reinsert them to get them to mount about 1/3 of the time which was not the case when I first got it. I will probably switch over to the Lexar at some point.
@@EndTimeCountryLiving Why rated speed is never acheievable. I can understand some loss but a 190MB/s rated card should hit atleast 175+ . 150 is too low. Same as 130 write should hit atleast 100+
From my research, only Sandisk and Lexar have the technology to read UHS-I cards at around 170 MB/s and Angelbird and ProGrade drives only read them at 90 MB/s. That is why they are the top best drives unless you want to invest in more expensive UHS-II cards.
@@danielbaldwin8871 Prograde has UHS II reader and produces similar results. This test is limited by the card speed. I get 180 write 210 read from the sandisk pro reader. My M1 macbook pro gets 180 write and 240 reads on the body's SD reader. Returning the sandisk pro since it isn't as fast as my mac
I think we only need
pci express to sdcard

Will this work with an iphone 14 pro with the correct usb c to lightning cable?
Don't have a way to test that. Sorry.
Is there any reader that can read 2-4 Micro and SD card simultaneously
Not that I have seen. You would just need two SanDisk pro-Readers which can nicely stack on top of one another.

CF for professional photographers is needed, lexar win

you didnt mention the most popular pro grade reader which made me skeptical about your knowledge right off the bat.
