Conclusion

The average write speed is about the same as with the ATP and Lexar cards. At least with the Addonics card reader, it's a bit slower with the Hama firewire reader.
Read speed is also slower but that was to be expected since the Extreme IV has a lower speed rating than the ATP and Lexar cards.
