CF and SD Card solutions for 2016 MBP?

[happypeople]

Hi everyone,

I was wondering what the best solutions everyone has found for using both CF and SD cards on their new MacBook Pro's.

Support for CFast and not just CFlash would also be ideal, though by no means a deal breaker.

I have been looking on B&H and nothing that uses type c have any reviews as of yet so I am hesitant to purchase something that doesn't have any reliability information available.

Has anyone has any experience with this: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1276973-REG/transcend_ts_rdc8k_type_c_usb_port.html

Thank you

I have the same unit but came with regular USB3 cable. I replaced the cable with USBC now it works great.

I have this one in my bag when travelling: https://www.amazon.com/Lexar-Professional-Dual-Slot-Reader-LRW300URBNA/dp/B0050C9ZMC

Fairly compact but more importantly, it closes to offer 'some' protection from dirt getting in the dual CF/SD slot (that won't be of any consequence if you need one to live on your desktop only).
