All-in-one front-panel hub

This CCCP 5.25-inch internal card reader adds an eSATA port, a SATA port, two USB 3.0 ports, six USB 2.0 ports, speaker and microphone jacks, and a five-slot card reader to a single drive bay. It targets desktop builders who want quick front access to multiple memory-card formats and extra USB connections without reaching behind the chassis.

One card at a time, mixed speeds

The integrated reader accepts SD, CF, TF, M2 and MMC or MS cards but reads only one card at a time. eSATA delivers up to 3 Gbps, SATA up to 1.5 Gbps, USB 3.0 up to 5 Gbps and USB 2.0 up to 480 Mbps, so large transfers from high-capacity cards will saturate the slower links first.

Fits a standard 5.25-inch bay

The unit mounts with four screws and draws 12 V and 5 V from a 4-pin power connector; incorrect orientation can cause a short circuit. Front-panel audio ports eliminate rear-cable routing for headsets, while the eight USB ports let you connect peripherals directly. Operating-system support covers Windows 98 through Vista and Mac OS 9, 10 and Linux.

Questions about this item

Will the 5.25" bay device work with my older motherboard that only has USB 2.0 headers?

Yes, the six USB 2.0 ports connect to a standard USB 2.0 header and will operate at up to 480Mbps even if your board lacks USB 3.0.

How can I verify the eSATA port is running at 3Gbps after installation?

Connect an eSATA drive, then check the link speed in Device Manager or your OS disk utility; it should report 3Gbps (SATA II) for the eSATA port.

Does the package include the 4-pin power cable and SATA data cable needed for the internal ports?

The box contains the front-panel unit, four mounting screws and a bilingual user manual; the 4-pin power lead and SATA data cable are not included and must be sourced separately.
