PCI E USB 3.0 Card Express 1X 2 Ports with Internal 19 Pin USB 3.0 Connector Superspeed 5Gbps PCI E USBIII Expansion Card Controller Adapter Support Windows 10, 8, 7, XP

This is the 2nd USB 3.0 card I tried in my 13 year old computer having only USB 2.0 ports front and back, as the 1st card I tried was unpowered and wasn't providing enough 'juice' to operate all my portable HDDs. For this card I used a spare SATA power connector which gives it the kick I need to run all of my various portable hard drive units with no problem. I also had to purchase a ribbon PCI-E cable extension in order to allow the use of this card as I have a large GPU card which sits right over the top of my PCI-E X1 slot. Luckily, Amazon sells those as well for under $10 so I pulled the graphics card, installed the new ribbon cable with 90 degree connectors on each end to get around the graphics card and connect up the new USB 3.0 card. After getting my old eMachines ET-1831-07 all back together, I installed the Beyimei driver CD, (as I'm running Windows 7), and it loaded very easily and I was ready to go. Does it work?? You Bet! Wow, what a vast improvement over the 1st unpowered USB 3.0 card I tried - this card will power up any and all my various external drives without a hiccup. Why didn't I install this Beyimei card in the first place?? IF you're planning to upgrade an old USB 2.0 PC to USB 3.0 and you're going to be running old external HDDs, my advice is to install THIS card as it works Great with older systems and has plenty of power for whatever needs you have and it's a complete kit for less $$ than the unpowered USB 3.0 card. And now I'm installing a PNY SSD and will just use my old WD Black HDD for backup ~ my old eMachines ought to Love That!

Works as it should, Installed the drivers that came on the mini CD and its worked perfectly so far. Windows 11

Worked as it should.

Great card, fast speed, brackets fit properly for small slots in pc. This card was great for adding usb3 to an older Digital Audio Workstation build. Card comes with everything you need to get setup, except the cable for adding ports to the front of your computer, you can either use your existing one and plug it into the card, or buy one. The only (minor) issue was when it came for the driver installation, there are 2 versions of the card drivers on the mini cd-rom. I wasn't sure which card I had. It wasn't described in the .pdf manual either. I pulled the card and checked the printing on the card and it wasn't clear either. I finally went back to amazon and looked at my order to see that I had the "Gen 1" version. Now I could install the correct drivers and it worked perfectly. so a sticker on the box or on the board would save some time, but its not a real big deal and I marked the box so If I pull this card to use in another computer in the future, I'll know which driver it needs. Card worked greate. I copied 1/2 tb over a usb3 hub and it took 8 hours. I copied that same 1/2 tb directly over the usb3 ports on this card, and it took 3 hours. so great speed and reliability. Great price, great card..

Great way to make all my computer case USB 3.x power up, the motherboard didn't have a 2nd USB 3 connection. This card isn't powered up when computer is off, motherboard attached USB 3.x connectors are powered if PC isn't booted up.

Does not offer the rated speed.

Windows 11 and Z690 motherboard. Did not need to install a separate driver. Worked right out of the box as intended. I bent the pins on my motherboard and wanted to used the front panel USB ports. This little card fixed my issue.

Does what it's supposed to, works well.

pas trop stable.

Parfait pour avoir des port usb3 pour des vieux ordi.

Ich brauchte primär eine Alternative für den onboard-Stecker für das Front-USB meines Gehäuses. Mir ist leider ein Pin am Mainboard abgebrochen. Mit dieser kleinen Karte konnte ich das Problem super lösen, ohne gleich das ganze Mainboard tauschen zu müssen. Zudem erhält man hinten am PC noch 2 weitere USB 3.0 Anschlüsse. Wirklich gut verarbeitet.

It works after having to order an extra power lead the one that was included was not long enough.
