PCI Bus to PC Card and CardBus Read-Writer Internal Rear R5C485
Synchrotech newest one slot PCI to PC CardBus reader for Windows XP is a snap to install and priced right. Utilizing the highly compatible Ricoh R5C485 chipset, the reader requires no special drivers--it uses XP's built in support. It also avoids the confusing and frustrating process of manually trying to force low order unshared IRQs often encountered with many card readers in its class. Simply plug into an empty PCI slot, boot, and Windows XP will automatically install the correct drivers for the device.
Suitable for GSM, CDMA, wireless LAN cards including 802.11b and Bluetooth, high performance CardBus cards, the device also handles ATA Flash, CompactFlash and Microdrives (with PC Card adapters), and much more. In fact, the reader supports nearly any 16 or 32 bit PC Card application as long as it is supported by XP.
