Recommend a good media card reader compatible with microdrives

I'm currently looking at this reader, made by Belkin. Is it any good? I had it before when I had my X50v but never had a microdrive in it. Must work well with the Seagate ST1 5Gb.

If you know of something else that is also good, post it, perferrably in the same price range.

I also have a Lian Li PC-65 case, i'm wondering if should just get the internal card reader made by them....?

I use an external USB card reader by Sandisk. The USB 2.0 card readers are pretty good. I use it with an old IBM 340 MB microdrive. I like the combination. It even works under Linux.

I have a LinXcel Hispeed USB 6-1 card reader. Works fine with my Seagate 8gb CF II micro drive.

I have one of those card readers that mounts into one of the 3.5" bays in my computer case. Internally it just plugs into the available usb 2.0 header on my motherboard. I also have a Seagate ST1 (FW:3.04); and the card reader reads the microdrive just fine.
