Recommendation for a card reader that can read multiple sd cards at once

[Bradmax57]

Can anyone recommend a card reader device that can read multiple sd cards at once? Ideally 4+ at a time, part of my work involves traffic surveys and I can have upto 30-40 cameras out at once which I need to get the footage off and then encode to make the files smaller, currently i just use multiple usb readers which is ok but a dedicated multiple card reader would be good?

Kingston Workflow is probably the cheapest option

Workflow Station and Readers – Modular USB 3.2 microSD and SD card reader and miniHub System - Kingston Technology

Kingston Workflow Station enables simultaneous file transfers via modular card readers and USB miniHub at USB 3.2 speeds.

Thanks for that the Kingston one looks decent and not badly priced either

Edit ordered hub with one sd reader and a further 3 sd readers

Looks like you'll need to price in the cost of 4 Workflow SD Readers at £20 each.
They support 2 SD cards each, giving you a total of 8. Still a good price. I was expecting something costing £300+

Yeah its come in at under £120 which is fine, means I can hopefully start the transfers and not have to sit and watch them complete and swap cards as much
