Easy Expandability
Super easy - installed in a matter of minutes (biggest issue was just opening my mini tower) and worked perfectly upon powering up. If you need a few extra USB C ports, this one's a no brainer, especially at the price.

Plug and Play with Windows 10
Works great! Needed a USB 3.0 port for a video capture card and this delivered. Installation was a breeze, if you’re able to install a graphics card you won’t have any problems. Didn’t have to install any drivers on Windows 10. Both ports fully functional and are letting me get a Camlink 4K for capturing a second PC in OBS.

Sadly, this did not work in either of my older motherboards
I tried this in two different desktops. Both supported USB-2 and had PCIe slots of course but I simply could not get it to work. In one, it would not even allow the desktop to even power up. I tried it in a PCIe 1x slot as well as a PCIe 16x slot but it just would not power up the motherboard. I already had an older USB-3 card in the desktop and even removed that and tried it but no matter what I tried no power up.At that point, rather than just send it back, I had a second Desktop which also had the same older USB-3 card in and I though I could both the older styles into on desktop and this new one alone in the other dekstop. It installed and the desktop powered up but gave me an error saying it could not find the driver. So being a computer specialist I went into Windows-7 and pointed it to the actual directory on the CD but it still came back with "No driver found....".This was disappointing as it simply would not work with either older motherboard so I had to return it.If you are wondering why I needed a second USB-3 card to start with..... On one server I have USB Drives for a media center (works great) as well as internal SATA but when I try to backup all my drives onto 8TB external USB drives, those that are internal SATA backup perfect but those on the existing USB-3 card will stall/timeout. I felt the problem was the USB hub and having a second card with one or 2 ports (I'd only use one) that I can backup to would be my answer. This was a cheaper solution than simply buying all new larger Internal SATA drives.Bottom line, my problem may be the old motherboards (both different manufacturers) I'm using but then that's what people sell USB-3 cards for isn't it.... Besides, the frustration of my second server telling me there was no driver on the CD was a huge disappointment.

No drivers needed in Linux, works perfectly!
This card was perfect. I have a old server (Dell Poweredge R510), that only had USB 2.0 on it. It is running Rocky Linux 8.10. I am using it to zero out some old SATA drives before we get rid of them. I was going about 20 megs a second on the USB 2.0 and now I am getting around 240 megs a second on the USB 3.0. I installed it and it was seen by Rocky natively. I didn't have to mess with any drivers on anything, it just worked. I plugged in my USB 3.0 / SATA adapter and it just works.

Plug It In and It Works - Windows 11
I was having difficulty with the USB ports on my Lenovo ThinkCentre 720s SFF running Windows 11. The USB camera was erratic on Zoom. I plugged this bad boy in to one of the PCIe x1 slots. Plugged the USB cable of the camera in to one of the USB ports. The camera worked immediately.
