A company made one of these a while ago, and it was awful. Linus Tech Tips has a video on it. The market is just too small and there are so many better options

  But you could make a Beowulf cluster out of those! Will no one ever think of all the wolves? ;)

  No, that one doesn't expose them as separate disks, that one is hardware raid 0

    The overarching point is the same. The utility of such a device is so small and has such a small potential audience that no one would make one (at least with any reasonable quality). If you really want it, get a USB hub and full each port with an SD card reader.

      I think you described the raid-0 device I was describing. Whoever came up with the idea for that device, I can say with confidence, does not understand the failure rate of SD cards and the mathematics of why raid-0 is a bad idea. You are right though in this "overarching" point that it is very niche and you can probably have a decent solution with USB. I would think that might get a little more clumsy and consume more power than a single board exposing all slots though.
