I was thinking the same thing. Also, once you get into SD cards,
some higher capacity or higher speeds ones will require "later,"
higher-capacity readers.

When I Google "0x058f" I immediately see "Generic USB 2.0

2.0 port to work? It would be worth the investment in a cheap USB
2.0 PCI card. Also, unless your keyboard is a newer USB 2.0
keyboard the ports on the keyboard will also be the slower USB 1.0
ports, so you'll need to attach the cardreader directly to the USB
2.0 PCI card ports or a USB 2.0 hub attached to this card. You can
used the onboard USB 1.0 ports for your keyboard & mouse or other
USB 1.0 devices.
