I am a novice when it comes to computers, can any one explain what an External Card reader is and how it can help me with my Transformer Pad TF700T.?

The transformer tablet comes with a couple of 'internal' connectors built in. One is the proprietary buss port that your charger/data cable plugs into. This is also the port that mates with the optional ASUS keyboard. Another is the slot where you can insert a mSD (micro Secure Digital) card to increase the usable memory of the tablet.The External Card Reader plugs into the proprietary port on the ASUS tablet. You then plug a full sized Secure Digital card - for instance, your camera's memory card - into the card reader. You can then transfer files (photo, video, data etc) from/to the SD card to/from the Transformer. It will also accept mini and micro SD cards if they are in a full size SD adapter.

I've never seen an express card-to-SD slot adapter. I don't think they exist, sorry. There are USB card readers though that should give you the same basic functionality though. Here's an example - http://www.amazon.com/Transcend-Flash-Memory-Reader-TS-RDP8K/dp/B001NS0OZ4/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1371066202&sr=8-4&keywords=usb+card+reader

I don't know about all the transformers but the TF100T (Windows 8.1) ASUS Transformer does work. This device can be plugged into the micro USB port on the table or the USB 3.0 port on the keyboard. Remember, USB To Go simply means that the micro USB port on your device s capable of acting as an USB master device (like a PC) and not a slave device (like a flash drive or other USB peripheral). There is no magic here, if your tablet / smart phone / whatever has USB To Go then ANY supported USB peripheral plugged into that port will work. The USB To Go cables I have here are merely a male micro USB to female USB A port adapters.

You don't need a card reader as you put the SDHC card directly into the unit. There is a dual-plug USB cable that connects unit to the computer.

Actually the manual does mention that an external power adapter is available if the attached device needs more power than the ExpressCard can supply. It's on page 2. Frankly, it seems to me, the vast majority of people will be better served by running the supplied USB 3.0 cable from the card to a powered USB 3.0 hub. This avoids any power issues in the first place.

This is not a card reader, so I would say no. That aside, mine never worked so I returned it.

It comes with a cable with USB to plug directly into computer. It's a good quality unit. We do professional photography. Nothing else needed. Just pick the one that fits your needs. Not a multiple card reader. Hope this helps.

None, you'll need to purchase the card reader separately depending of your needs, this is just a hub for card readers. Great product by the way.

This card reader connects to the usb 2.0 header on your motherboard, which powers all the card slots. Just make sure you have an open header on your board.

I have searched the Asus website, Google and EBay and can not find an adapter that is compatible with both tf600 and tf700. I wouldn't risk buying this one, instead I would buy one that is specifically for the tf600.

I use the USB dongle to connect a thumb drive to my TF701t. I'm using stock 4.4.2. I am still locked, and not rooted. And I can read files just fine. I've also used the SD card attachment without problems. Don't know if it will work for you. But the two items work just fine for me.

Check to see if you are inserting the card in the correct slot. Make sure you are using a working USB port. Try inserting an external hard drive in the same slot and see if it boots up. Also make sure you have current USB 3.0 drivers installed. Check your card with another computer or a card reader you know works. If you have the card in the correct slot, have the cable in a working USB port, have the current drivers and can't access your card, but the card works with another reader then it's possible you have a defective unit.

Hi Glen~ This Kingston USB 3,0 memory card reader is one of the best, if not the best card reader on the market! I have had issues with other models where the pins eventually became baent and were useless for CF cards. This card reader was well constructed. The CF cards are so securely and tightly held in the slot, thereby avoiding any movement which can potentially bend some of the pins. I absolutely endorse this product! The Kingston USB 3.0 is great with SD cards! Do check the reviews on Amazon!

What exactly to you have that is connected to your computer that is powered by the USB? Keyboards, Mice, Game Controllers, Flash Drives, USB Memory Card Readers, all these things should work just fine. External Hard Drives I am not sure about, but If your External Hard Drive is Powered though a AC Adapter (Or DC Adapter if You live outside the USA) I am guessing it should be OK, but if you are not sure or uncomfortable about hooking up a hard drive to a USB extension cord like this one. Then you are better off just using the shorter USB cable that the External Hard Drive came with.
