Might help if you post what make and model of computer you are putting it in. And, are you replacing one or installing new.

For how much they cost I would go for the one with the best review that will fit the case. Rick, when he reads this would be the one that I personally would take advise from. He to me is the builder here.

Thanks for confidence warlock. You're too kind. :) :)

Am not that familiar with Card Readers, however a quick search on newegg shows this one may be what ronniesonora is looking for and it will fit into one of his upper case slots without an adapter.

@Rick, wasn't sure about the 2.0 or maybe 3.0 USB.

Warlock & Rick, thank you both! I think I'll go with the http://www.newegg.com/Product/.....6820176023 USB 3.0

Just be aware that the reader you chose won't fit into a 3.0 USB MOBO header. You will need an adapter like this

or this.

This is assuming you have an unused 3.0 USB header. Most boards that have USB 3.0 headers have only one, which you would need for the front ports on your case. If you do have only the one USB 3.0 header, since most MOBOs have at least two USB 2.0 headers (you also need one for your front panel), the infamous Plan B would be to get the USB 2.0 reader Rick listed. Plan C would be to abandon the two front panel USB 3.0 ports, get the USB 3.0 reader you chose, and depend on the one USB 3.0 port on the reader.

Thanks again for all the good in info.
