Lexar has introduced two new professional-grade flash memory card readers designed to deliver increased download speeds from the card to a computer. One reader features a new and unique industrial design and is fully compatible with two new flash card interface standards: UDMA (Ultra Direct Memory Access) CompactFlash, a high-performance flash memory protocol based on the CompactFlash form factor, and SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity), a memory standard that supports capacities of 4GB and higher in the Secure Digital form factor. The second reader is an upgrade to Lexar’s already-existing stackable model that allows for concurrent download of information from multiple flash memory cards.
