Do you need PCMCIA PC Card slots to operate 3G cards in your desktop PC or transfer data among desktop and notebook computers, palmtops, digital cameras, MP3 players, and other devices? These PC card readers/writers (also known as PCMCIA card drives / PC Card slots / PC Card hosts / PC card adapters / PCMCIA socket controllers) can significantly simplify the tasks of wireless internet access, data transfer, etc.

Installing the internal PC card reader to a desktop PC is the most economical method to add PC Card slots to the desktop PC so you can have the same PCMCIA functionality that a laptop PC provides. These internal PC card readers support all kinds of type I, type II, or type III 16-bit PC cards and/or 32-bit CardBus PC cards such as data storage, ethernet/network, modem (wired or wireless), wireless LAN, ATA flash memory, hard disk drives, linear flash, SRAM, serial I/O, etc.. These PCMCIA card drives also read CompactFlash (CF)** card, SmartMedia** card, Microdrive**, Memory Stick**, MultiMediaCard (MMC)**, Secure Digital (SD) card**, etc.. (** some models need the proper PCMCIA adapter to convert them into type II PC cards).

Wireless internet access in an area without wired internet access is now feasible for desktop PCs not equipped with PCMCIA (PC Card) slot. The rear mount PCI interfaced PC card drives (either the 1 slot model PCD-RP-101CS or the 2 slots model PCD-TP-202CS) are ideal for communication cards such as ethernet LAN card (wired or wireless), modem card (wired or wireless), GPS .. etc. since they do not occupy desktop PC's drive bay. These two models are recommended for IEEE802.11x wireless LAN and modem PC cards (such as Verizon / Sierra AirCard, Novatel Merlin, Cingular EDGE, Kyocera Passport, Sprint, T-Mobile, AT&T, AirPrime, Qualcomm, and other wireless PC card modems using CDMA, EDGE, GPRS, UMTS technology. The PCD-RP-101CS is a better choice for Verizon / Novatel V620 wireless PC Card modem.

The external USB card readers, especially the UISDMA2W designed for both PC and Mac, support data storage cards such as PCMCIA ATA flash and hard drives PC cards, SSFDC SmartMedia card, compact flash (CF) card, Microdrives, Memory Stick, MultiMediaCard (MMC), Secure Digital (SD) card, .. etc.
