Product Description

SanDisks newest addition is the innovative Ultra II SD Plus USB, which combines USB and SD functionality in a single card. The ubiquity of this new format eliminates the need for a reader or PC card adapter, as it transforms from an SD card to a USB adapter with our unique hinged cover. The superior value for providing two products in one makes this the most unique SD card in the market. What is SDHC? To support the higher capacity needs, SD cards are now requiring a different design. The new SD 2.0 specifications which supports 4GB and up, is called Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC). The SD Association has created and defined 3 speed classes to help you identify speed and performance capabilities/minimum requirements of SDHC cards and their SDHC host products. Please note that eXpansys vouchers cannot be used when purchasing this product.

Customer Reviews

Best Purchase in a while!
This is an SDHC card not a plain SD so check your device is compatible. That said it works well in my Treo 680 palm smart phone and means I don't have to carry round a separate USB memory stick! Seems robust enough and the little led in USB mode is a nice touch (so you know its in the right way round). Highly recommended after a few months use!

ULTRA 11 SD PLUS 4GB 15 MBS Memory Card
I have found this card ideal for use with my Coolpix P50 camera. Not only has it a large memory which is good when on holiday, when no change of card is ideal, it also downloads well to my computer.

Why don't all cards come with USB?
This card works fine on my macbook. It also works fine with my G9 Powershot. Worked fine on a Canon Ixus 75. Some older cameras may need a firmware update, some cameras max out at 2GB cards, so do check your cameras manual or go check out the manufacturers website.

The card itself looks like a repackaged mini-SD card with USB added. It even hides a green LED to inform you it's being powered by the USB port. It seems to work very fast, better than card readers I've used in the past. I like not having to bother with card readers, and it's not that expensive.

A potential negative is that due to its small size and plastic built, it feel flimsy and I'm not sure how long it'll stay in one piece. Also you may find yourself trying to stick the USB in the wrong way up, Remember it's label on the bottom, gold contacts facing up.
