About the UltraBlock Forensic Card Reader and Writer

The UltraBlock Forensic Card Readers are available as a set:  One Read-Only and One Read-Write. The Read-Only unit should be used for forensic acquisition of information found on multimedia and memory cards. The Read-Write unit is included to provide the ability to write to memory cards for testing or validation. These card readers are the same units integrated into our FRED systems and are exclusively available from Digital Intelligence.

Note: The UltraBlock Forensic Card Readers are NOT off-the-shelf readers with unknown forensic implications.

Devices which store data on memory or multimedia cards include Digital Cameras, MP3 Players, Voice Recorders, PDA's, Cell Phones, Computers, and other digital storage devices.  Using an integrated swing-out connector, the Forensic Card Readers can be connected directly to a USB 2.0 (or USB 1.x) port on your workstation or laptop.  Although no cables are required to connect these readers, an additional USB type B port is included in the unit to accept a cable if desired.
