If you're using this to read an SD or SDHC card, you're all set. Just plug your memory card into this reader and plug your reader into the ExpressCard slot in your laptop.
But if your memory card falls under the "ADDITIONAL ADAPTER REQUIRED" list above, then you need you need to place your memory card into an adapter, place the adapter into the reader, and the reader into the ExpressCard slot in your laptop. Probably the most people who will need the additional adapter will be users of Memory Stick Duo or Memory Stick Duo Pro (used in many Sony Cybershot cameras and the PSP).
Once you plug your ExpressCard reader into your laptop, there are no drivers to install. Access your files just like you do with a USB flash key or like a USB memory card reader.
NOTE
-----
Make sure your laptop really has an ExpressCard slot. On older laptops, you may have the wider PCMCIA card slot. In that case, this reader would not be compatible.
COMPLAINT
----------
This is just a minor annoyance:
- There is no protective case for this reader. No case, no cheap sleeve, nothing at all. Your memory cards all come with protective cases and this reader has twice the amount of pins/contacts since it acts as a bridge between your laptop and the memory card... yet there's no case. Cases are important since you're probably throwing this into your laptop bag and dust can get into it.
UPDATES
=======
I've had this card reader for over a year now. No complaints. Works flawlessly. It's so convenient that I leave it in my laptop's express card slot all the time. (But don't leave a memory card inside the card reader if the memory card sticks out, such as an SD card would).
If you are looking for an express card reader that can read Compact Flash memory cards, this reader WILL NOT work. Instead, you would need this instead Lexar Professional Express Card Compact Flash Reader LRWEXPPRBNA
