I know there are several USB hub dongles that could be used in a similar manner, but what I’m looking for is something that occupies a single USB port and offers 3+ slots for SD and/or microSD cards, letting me browse them all from my computer. Are there any such products? I’m ok with buying off Aliexpress
One solution I’ve seen is using a bunch of those USB adapters and a powered multi-USB hub.

@[email protected] Yup, it’s something that’s been bothering me for a while. I have more cards than USB reader sticks, so I wanted to just get a hub or dock to read many at once.
@[email protected] Yeah, it seems I’ll have to resort to that due to being much cheaper than getting a proper sd-reader hub, as what cmnybo linked above is way beyond what I can spend.

That’s a single slot card reader, I need something with more slots for (micro)sd cards, like a single usb stick with 4 slots for microSD cards, mounting all of them at once
The second link had 4 slots, but do you mean 4 slots of the same exact type?
do you mean 4 slots of the same exact type?
Yes. I already have one of those multi-type/universal card readers. That is not what I’m looking for. I need something with several identical slots, either for SD or microSD cards
If you want it for multi write duplication. there are standalone devices like balena etcher pro, or copystars. but not much that acts like mutli pc card mounter
I’m surprised how few options there are out there. I tried looking using the keywords “hub”," “dock”, and even " duplicator" but couldn’t find anything. Hopefully you don’t need to resort to getting a USB hub then just using USB adapters
