Try Newegg & search for "multicard reader"

http://www.newegg.com/

You can refine the search for internal readers & USB 3

Hi, I am looking for a new card reader.
I want one that mounts in a CD drive bay (I believe that makes it a
5.25" bay", and it must support USB3 for card reading. I would also like
it to have at least one, preferably more USB 3 ports.
I'm on a PC, so firewire stuff probably isn't going to work for me, but
my MB does support internal USP 3 connections..

Any ideas?

thanks

OK, so I was wrong, well at least out of date. My information was as of
several months ago. I've been looking for one of these myself, and I'm
now aware of at least two other options that are true USB 3.0 readers.
The front panels of all of them show pretty much the same card slots in
the same arrangements, probably the same components if not the same
complete readers. You can spend a lot more or a bit less, the only
difference seems to be that the newer readers can transfer files
directly between cards. Where as the Roswell unit I reverenced at
Amazon cannot. I suspect it's a firmware rather than hardware issue.

Which is the one I'm thinking of getting. I know it looks cheep but
with electronics I find that you often don't get what you pay for, you
often get a lot less.

The only internal card reader that actually supports USB 3.0 is this
one available on Amazon. I've done a bit of research and all the
other "USB 3.0" actually seem to have USB 2.0 card readers, the only
thing that supports 3.0 is the additional USB ports.

It's designed for a 3 1/2 inch drive bay so you'll need a 3.5 to 5.25
inch mounting kit, but those are cheep enough.
