USB-C SD Express Card Reader 10Gbps

A StarTech USB-C SD Express Card Reader that connects via USB Type-C and supports the Secure Digital 7.1 specification. It delivers up to 10Gbps transfer speed for compatible SD Express cards.

For single-card SD Express workflows

This reader suits photographers and videographers who offload footage from one SD Express card at a time using a USB-C port. Buyers who need simultaneous multi-card ingest or higher sustained throughput than 10Gbps provides will need a different solution.

Questions about this item

Does the 10 Gbps USB-C link become the bottleneck when reading SD 7.1 Express cards at full speed?

The reader uses a 10 Gbps USB-C connection, so sustained throughput cannot exceed that link rate.

How much heat does the adapter produce during continuous all-day transfers?

The compact, fanless design relies on passive cooling; surface temperature will rise under constant load but stays within normal operating limits.
