    Kingston 19-in-1 Media Card Readers Now Available

    Kingston

    The AAC Computer Learning Lab has purchased two new Kingston 19-in-1 media card readers which are now available for checkout use in our lab.

    This will speed up transfers of your data and not require you to bring in your digital camera when transferring photos.

    Kingston's 19-in-1 card reader supports a wide variety of cards including CompactFlash Type I and II, SD, SDHC, miniSD, miniSDHC, microSD, microSDHC, MMC, MMCmobile (DV RS-MMC), MMCplus, MMCmicro, RS-MMC, Microdrive, Memory Stick Micro (M2), Memory Stick, Memory Stick PRO, Memory Stick Duo as well as Memory Stick PRO Duo. You won't need a separate adapter to fit your microSD cards into before docking—fantastic, since lots of phones now use these tiny cards in order to save physical space (but sacrifice storage space).

    We hope you find this resource valuable.
