Not much I can say, does the job I bought it for. Just be aware you'll need to disable wake on PCI-E/USB settings in BIOS and have the power connector plugged in.

Bought for diagnosing a computer issue, Solved the problem, Left it in to do some more useful work. What It wont do (at least with my config) Is boot a usb drive from power off or for Bios control with keyboard and mouse. Some usb sticks refused to work, though they wold work through a usb2 hub. What this thing is useful for is lots of USB hard drives for and as part of a back up solution. With my oldish computer I could not get the maximum speed as limited by my buss though it was a measure faster than the onboard USB 3 on mother board. worked fine under Linux so what am I to worry about :) Bought for diagnosing a computer issue, Solved the problem, Left it in to do some more useful work.

Easy to install into your pc, but once you turn it on you may have to configure your bios to enable it. This is a step that I had to take in order for it to work so I could then install the drivers. It is not hard to find the drivers at all you can easily find them on the Orico website, this will be a great addon for all the flight sim peripherals I use for DCS.

Have not done any speed or load tests but initially seems to function as expected. Have not done any speed or load tests but initially seems to function as expected.

Simple to install, easy to use, works well.

I desperately needed some new ports, and lots of them, because the onboard USB 2.0 ports on my PC have been dying/malfunctioning.

So I was searching for something reasonably priced, with enough ports, and preferably an upgrade to USB 3.0, and the Orico Desktop PC 7 Port USB 3.0 PCI-E Expansion Card was just right!

I've only had it installed for about 2 months, but in that time it's operated perfectly. Couldn't be happier!

The sale was smooth and easy too, thanks! I desperately needed some new ports, and lots of them, because the onboard USB 2.0 ports on my PC have been dying/malfunctioning.

As an avid flight simmer, with 7 devices running from external switchwed USB hubs, and having to switch these off then on again to initialise, was fast becoming OLD!
Enter the Orico Desktop PC 7 Port USB 3.0 PCI-E Expansion Card!! Perfect, devices always on. No need to crawl under the desk to unplug, plug in USB leads. Or reach across to the hubs and switch them in and out. Brilliant. Highly recommend for adding a new motherboard mounted hub Even comes with the needed SATA Power supply extension cable. Yes, I needs its own power supply.

Works perfectly and the drivers were not hard to find. Works perfectly and the drivers were not hard to find.

I purchased this adapter to circumvent issues I was having with my M5a97 R2.0 motherboard's USB controller in Windows 10 eg. stopping and starting and sluggish performance across multiple USB devices. During the month or so I've been using this adapter the issues seem to have been completely remedied.

It works fine even with my external wifi adapter, which the supplied manual suggested can be an issue - I'm using the TPLink TL-WN822N. I'm so glad to no longer be getting disconnected from the internet 20 times a day! My Orico BTA-402 bluetooth adapter works fine from this also.

The drivers were slightly harder to find due to the link provided being redirected to a general page, but I got there without too much trouble.

It seems that I didn't need to set any power management settings for this device in BIOS with my motherboard, but like others have said you need to plug an external power adapter into the card from your PSU.

All in all, I'm very pleased with the price of the card for the convenience it provides, and am happy to be running all 5 of my USB devices (mouse, keyboard, webcam, bluetooth dongle, external wifi) from the card with stability.

nice and dose what it says nice and dose what it says

Recognized by HP Reverb G2 headset and so far it has worked flawlessly. Recognized by HP Reverb G2 headset and so far it has worked flawlessly.
