MacBook Pro Compatible! Jun 08, 2006
By J. Romkey
Except for an issue with sleep, I've been very pleased with this card. It's the first ExpressCard that I've bought for use with my MacBook Pro... there aren't really a lot of things you need to use the card slot for, but I've been very pleased with this card. It works without any additional drivers; just pop it in, then pop in the memory card. For my camera's memory card, iPhoto comes up automatically and offers to import my photos. Copying is very fast.
Buyers should note that it doesn't support Compact Flash cards; they're wider than the ExpressCard slot is.
I've found that my MacBook Pro doesn't sleep properly with the card installed. It starts to sleep then immediately wakes back up. I thought at first that it was a problem with the MacBook and was going to call Apple, but I realized I'd left the card in its slot... removing the card before sleeping the MacBook Pro takes care of the problem.

 Excellent add on for Macbook Pro Apr 27, 2006
By Tech Fun
Despite no offcial support for Mac OS X, this card runs with no problems with the Macbook Pro. A previous reviewer has said this and I absolutely agree.
The card fits flushed with the slot. It reads all SD media that I have thrown at it - from a lowly 16mb panasonic, 256mb panasonic, 512mb Lexar and a 2GB Sandisk (Blue). All work seamlessly. At 39.99 with free shipping its the best price I could find if you are buying from California.
Edit: The card works great with media but there seems to be an issue with OS X sleep. When the card is connected to the Macbok Pro it seems to prevent it from going to sleep. The work around is to eject the card . Wait for the MBP to go to sleep, then put the card back in. I am not sure whether this is a card specific issue or PCIexpress slot issue.

Works in a Apple Macbook Pro Mar 30, 2006
By Ricardo Viegas
I just got this card and so far it works very well in my MacBook Pro running Mac OS X. Even though it says it only works for PC's running windows this is not true it will work in Macs too. It's fast and stays very flush with the case. It doesn't stick out of the slot even with a SD memory card inserted which makes this very neat since you can just leave the card inside your computer all the time and not have to worry about it being broken off or anything.

Works in MacBook Pro Jun 08, 2006
By Sebastian R. Stanciu
Just another verification that it works perfectly in my new 17 inch MacBook Pro. No issues to report. It's very fast when compared with a USB card reader. It's faster than my camera to transfer pics to iPhoto. I always take the card out before closing my screen, so no sleep issues for me. Cheap price and great functionality. A+

 xD does NOT work on MacBook Pro Jan 15, 2007
By A. knasinski
Works fine with SD cards but Siig support confirmed an issue I was having regarding xD media not mounting on Mac OS X...
We did not market this reader/writer for Mac because of compatibility
issues with xD cards in the Mac, there is no fix for this issue.
However, we will update to a different version soon that will be fully
compatible in Mac OS 10.4.7 or later.
