For one thing, it’d be a clumsy, inefficient arrangement - there’d be lots of separate, redundant hardware pieces involved. So, you’re looking at a cost of $90-ish and up to create a 10-card reader. Each adapter/card will get its own address or drive letter each will be separately accessible for whatever read/write operations you want to do.Ī basic 10-port USB hub starts at around $40 basic SD adapters cost around $5 each.
Plug each of your 10 memory cards into a separate adapter/carrier, and then plug each adapter into a different port on the hub. The easiest, albeit inelegant, solution would be to connect a standard multi-port USB hub to your PC one with as many ports as you wish (e.g. You want simultaneous access to multiple cards. The reader is one device, servicing one card. When you plug in a standard card reader - even one with multiple slots for different types of cards - the reader is assigned one address from the PC whatever card is in the reader then uses that address. I think I can suggest a better approach but first, to answer your question: You need a hub, not a reader.
