Front-Panel Hub for 5.25-Inch Bays

This Fervit hub adds two USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-A and two Type-C ports to the front of a desktop, turning an empty optical-drive bay into a high-speed data and charging station. It connects to a motherboard 20-pin Type-E header and draws supplementary power from a SATA connector. The unit suits builders who want fast peripheral access without opening the case.

Sustained 10Gbps Throughput via VL822

The VL822 chipset with Multiple INs technology keeps all four ports at the full 10Gbps signalling rate during long transfers, avoiding the slowdown typical of single-lane hubs. Dedicated SATA power (5V/2A) feeds bus-powered drives so they do not throttle or disconnect under load. Windows 11 down to XP recognise the hub natively, so performance is consistent across OS versions.

Tool-Free Bay Mount and Type-E Link

The chassis slides into any standard 5.25-inch bay and secures without screws, leaving the front panel flush for daily plugging and unplugging. A single 20-pin Type-E cable carries both data lanes to the motherboard; systems lacking that header cannot use the hub. Ports provide data and power only, with no video or Thunderbolt capability.

Questions about this item

Does the hub generate noticeable heat or noise when all four ports run at 10Gbps all day?

The hub has no fan and draws power from the SATA connector, so it runs silently; any warmth stays within normal limits for a VL822 controller under continuous load.

What motherboard header and power connector must my system already have for this hub to work?

You need a free 20-pin Type-E header for USB 3.2/3.1 and a spare SATA power plug from the PSU to supply 5V/2A.

Will the hub work at full speed if I keep an older USB 3.0 drive plugged into one of the Type-A ports?

Yes — each port negotiates independently, so a USB 3.0 device runs at its native 5Gbps while the other ports still deliver 10Gbps.
