Needed the driver disk for installation in Windows 7, Windows 10 has native drivers, so no disk needed. Works very well to power two additional front panel USB 3.0 ports. I couldn't boot a USB drive from this card, had to use the motherboard ports, as I believe the drivers have to be loaded for it to allow access to the added ports. Otherwise, no problems. Fast transfers, much faster than USB 2.0. Using it in a HP Compaq Elite 8300 SFF, for which I had to order a power adapter cable; this card uses a Molex connector for power, and the PC had only SATA power connectors.

No contaba con que venia su adaptador de sata a molex para alimentar los puertos y fue una gran sorpresa que vino a solucionarme la vida al momento de instalarlo, trabaja de maravilla y aunque windows 7 lo reconoció tuve que instalar los drivers incluidos, proceso que no lleva mas de 2 minutos, inmediatamente lo utilice con un disco portátil USB 3.0 para respaldar mi pc, buena velocidad de escritura y lectura. Excelente Producto!!!

I installed this on my Asus P9X79 Pro motherboard and was able to attain read/write speeds of 208MBps and 226MBps. I installed on Windows 10 Pro using the supplied install CD (which has the same versions of firmware and drivers as does the online download from the Syba website).This in an improvement over the on-board USB 3.0 ports on that only deliver USB 2.0 Speed and even the front panel USB3.0 connections that connect to the MoBo on a different USB 3.0 controller and aren't as slow as the on-board rear USB 3.0 ports. Most modern USB 3.0 ports will sustain a higher transfer speed but this particular MoBo and many in this generation (circa 2011) may benefit from an aftermarket PCIe USB 3.0 add-on card, like this Syba one.I tested with a 960GB SanDisk Ultra III SSD on an external USB3.0 dock. The dock might be the bottle-neck in this case as the SSD can sustain much higher speeds but I do not have another newer system available to me right now that I can test with. I may update with additional findings if I remember to retest another time - but for now, this is an upgrade for me and I am content with >200MBps speeds as this solves my big problem of not being to connect a Magewell HDMI to USB 3.0 video capture card to a client computer for because all the available USB 3.0 ports could not sustain a fast enough speed and were working like legacy USB 2.0 ports.

Es una buena opción para contar con puertos USB 3.0 (que mi equipo no tiene), además de contar con la opción de agregar aún más puertos, gracias su adaptador interno.También, escogí esta tarjeta porque trae el adaptador para equipos del tipo lowprofile

I'm very happy with the Syba 2 port USB 3.0 card. It was easy to install and works perfectly. I really needed the card's USB header to attach my Corsair 750D front panel USB 3.0 ports to; both of these are working very well. My needs have been satisfied with this card.

The USB 3.0 PCI - Express 2.0 model SD-PEX 20139, is easy to install.The USB 3.0 ports are recognized immediately in a PC with GNU/Linux - distro openSuSE 13.2. The performance of USB 3.0 ports on the card is pretty good, transferring 6.7 GB on 01:44:44 min, but everything is entirely different in the USB ports associated with 19 Pin internal header, the same transfer of 6.7 GB, can reach 07:XX: XX min and in some tests a WD My Passport USB 3.0 external drive is disconnected leaving corrupt transferred files. all tests were made in two equal cards, maintaining the same scenarios, definitely I will return these devices, and go for another brand.

I was a little concerned when I bought it because of the negative reviews on this site and others. But, it turns out this is a great little card. I needed it for its internal USB 3.0 connector block, because I need two 3.0 connectors and my motherboard only has one.I am running Windows 8.1 x64 on an Asus Maximus VI Formula motherboard.I plugged the card in and turned the computer on and the card was instantly recognized and the drivers loaded. I did not need to download drivers from anywhere. I did not need to load drivers off the CD that came with it. I did not need to configure anything.It just worked.All my USB devices are recognized and popup instantly after being inserted.I have not performed any performance tests but it feels fast. But, c'mon guys. Most of the time we are talking about little portable USB thumb drives, or a camera or something. I am not saying it is not fast, but if the card was not the fastest of the bunch, who cares. It is compatible, fast, and easy to use all for around $20.I recommend this card

These negative reviews about the 4-pin power.... serious? If you minded having this as the power function of this card then you shouldn't have bought it. It's CLEARLY in the description and photos.I have an Asus P6T Deluxe V2 and the USB ports are all USB 2.0. I didn't want to have to get a whole new motherboard and having all my slots taken up by video cards and audio peripherals I didn't think I would be able to find something that would work. Little did I know this little PCIe card existed. I didn't even need the driver CD. The card installed with ease and recognized immediately in Windows 8. Works awesome and have had no failures.

When I first got this card I still did not have my power connector yet. I decided to plug it in and maybe at least play around with it with my USB 2.0 devices. I installed the driver the instruction sheet said to install and after turning on my PC the card did not work. So I guess without the 4 pin molex connection the card does not work at all rather than not properly like another reviewer stated. This is why I gave it 4/5 starts (in my opinion its a con). After I connected the power connection the card works fine and I get about double the performance. Definitely not an extreme upgrade, but faster but none the less. I have a i3 3.30 GHz chip and 8GB of RAM if anyone needs a reference.

I tried for many hours but could not get the Syba drivers to work with my computer. Maybe you will have better luck. I gave the card a try because it was sold for a very good price. Returned to Amazon without any trouble and bought a Star Tech 4 Port PCI Express which installed in minutes and runs flawlessly.

I have this unit installed in a HP Pavilion Elite 9340 with Win7. Installation was simple and the drivers on the CD were up to date. I have both a 2.0 and 3.0 device connected. Every device has worked great. You may get a pop up that you should connect this device to a 2.0 adapter but if you connect the ROHS power harness you won't get the pop up.So far, so good. Well worth the price.

The Item arrived ok. It works in my computer but the computer will not let me shut down from inside windows, I have to hold down the power button. I didn't have this problem until I installed this card. Despite this set back, the card works great.
