Add four USB 3.0 ports via PCI Express

This StarTech.com PEXUSB3S4V controller card adds four external USB 3.0 ports to a desktop computer through a PCI Express slot. It supports data transfer rates up to 5.0 Gbps and includes a low-profile bracket for small-form-factor cases. A SATA power connector is provided for bus-powered devices. The card is fully compliant with USB 3.0 revision 1.0 and Intel xHCI rev0.95 specifications.

Suits Windows desktops needing more USB 3.0 ports

This card suits owners of compatible Windows desktops such as the Lenovo ThinkCentre M93p or Dell OptiPlex 3010 who need additional SuperSpeed ports. Driver support covers Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8 and Server 2003 or 2008 R2 in both 32-bit and 64-bit editions. It is not for systems lacking a free PCI Express slot or for users requiring USB 3.1 or 3.2 speeds.

PCI Express x1 interface with SATA auxiliary power

The card installs in a single PCI Express slot and draws supplementary power from an internal SATA connector to support multiple bus-powered peripherals. Four ports are arranged in a stacked layout on a full-height bracket, with a half-height bracket included for low-profile chassis. A driver CD and manual complete the package.

Questions about this item

How much heat or noise does the card produce when running all day?

The card has no fan and draws power through a SATA connector, so it adds negligible heat and makes no audible noise during continuous operation.

What must my desktop already have for this card to work?

A free PCI Express slot and an internal SATA power cable from the power supply to feed bus-powered USB devices.

Will the card work with my older Windows 7 64-bit system?

Yes, the driver CD supports Windows 7 64-bit as well as Vista, XP, Server 2003 and Server 2008 R2 in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions.
