Troubleshooting

Reader not recognized by computer

Ensure the USB-C cable is securely connected to both the reader and the computer. Try a different USB-C port on your computer. Verify that your operating system is compatible. If using a USB hub, connect directly to the computer.

Slow transfer speeds

Confirm that your computer's USB port is USB 4 for maximum speed. Ensure you are using the provided USB-C to USB-C cable. Close unnecessary applications running in the background that may consume system resources.

Card not reading or ejecting improperly

Safely eject the card from your operating system before removing it. Try re-inserting the CFexpress card. Test the card in another reader or device to rule out a card issue. Ensure the card is fully inserted.

Reader overheating

While some warmth is normal during high-speed transfers, excessive heat could indicate an issue. Ensure adequate ventilation around the reader and avoid prolonged transfers in direct sunlight or very hot environments.
