Customer feedback:
" I used the card [SD Ultra II PLUS] on a recent trip to the UK, and took about 270 photos at high quality setting over about 10 days. It was great not having to worry about carting around another card in case I filled one up - I just kept shooting. At home, I took it out of the camera, into the USB slot and downloaded my photos. While you can get printers now with card slots which essentially do the same thing, this USB card is great because you don't need any special equipment, just your computer. The little flip cover on the card looks fragile, but is pretty sturdy - so far anyway :-) Maree" 24/4/06
The new dual-functionality device has been added to the SanDisk Ultra II product line, a family of high-performance flash memory cards with write speeds of 9 megabytes (MB) per second and read speeds of 10MB/sec.*
SanDisk's newest addition to this family is the innovative Sandisk Ultra II SD Plus memory card. The ground-breaking card provides the unique capability of utilizing your SD card in a USB port, eliminating the need for any readers to offload content to a PC. This card transforms from an SD card to a USB adapter with our unique hinged cover.
The new SanDisk Ultra II SD PLUS 1 GB card, which can be used in a wide variety of SD-based products—including digital cameras, PDAs, camcorders and camera phones—means greater convenience and cost savings for consumers. Now, to transfer data, images, audio or video between computers, digital cameras and other electronic devices, you don’t need a card reader, cables or card adapters. Just flip the card to engage the USB connector and simply plug the Ultra II SD PLUS into any USB port. And the card also features an LED that blinks when data transfer is taking place to indicate that the card is being used as a USB flash drive.
The advanced mechanical design eliminates the need for a removable cap, which can be lost, and gives consumers a dual functionality card that is fully SD compliant. We believe that the Ultra II SD PLUS will be a much more popular product than any similar device on the market because it is an SD card and SD has become the dominant standard for flash memory cards.
The SanDisk Ultra II SD PLUS is targeted primarily at the professional digital camera and prosumer market where 4 mega-pixel or higher resolution digital cameras are requiring significantly faster flash memory film cards. The Ultra II product line, which also includes CompactFlash® and Memory Stick PRO™ card formats, allows photographers to quickly capture high-resolution images and take advantage of the advanced features available today in high mega-pixel digital cameras.
Not only are they amongst the fastest SD cards on the market with data transfer rates of around 10MB per second but by folding these SD cards you can also plug them directly into your PC's USB port to transfer files. No need for a USB card reader or adapter with the Sandisk Ultra II SD Card.
SanDisk's Ultra II is the high-performance digital memory solution for the serious photographers. This family of outstanding flash cards provides the durability and high-speed quality needed for advanced amateur photographers and photo enthusiasts.
