Aren't Lidl selling one this week?

€15! I think it's USB... certainly looks that way from the plug in the picture on the page anyways!

Handy little things! Got one built-in to the laptop... (and hasn't actually been working since i got it last December... it needs a driver! Must look into it!)

the lidl one is great value, it's USB 2.0 aswell so good high speeds!

I find its best to disable the ones in the laptops - else everytime you open file explorer you will have a few seconds delay while it checks all the drives and times out when it sees there is no card present. If you have lots of slots - each gets its own drive letter ... and it has to time out for each one.
At least thats what happened to my laptop...
Right click in device manager and disable until you need it....
