Four-port USB 3.0 expansion

This PCI Express add-in card adds four external USB 3.0 ports to a desktop computer. It uses a single-lane Gen 2 slot and includes both a 9.5 mm low-profile bracket and a standard bracket for different chassis. The card targets users who need extra high-speed ports for peripherals or external drives.

Driver-first installation

Installing the card requires fitting it into an available PCIe x1 slot and attaching the chosen bracket. The manufacturer highlights that the NEC USB 3.0 driver must be installed on the operating system before the ports will function. Missing this step is the most common reason the new ports remain invisible to the system.

Four ports at 5 Gbps shared bandwidth

The four ports share the upstream PCIe Gen 2 x1 link, giving a combined ceiling of 5 Gbps. This comfortably handles multiple keyboards, mice, printers or single external SSDs used one at a time. Simultaneous heavy transfers across several drives will saturate the link and reduce per-port throughput.
