Hi All,

Stay away from the Star Tech PEXUSB311AC2

Â*Â*Â* StarTech.com Dual Port USB 3.1 Card – 1x USB-C – 1x
Â*Â*Â* USB-A – 10Gbps per port – Expansion Card – USB 3.1 PCI-E
Â*Â*Â* Card – USB 3 PCI

It crashes your file system on large file transfers and crashes your
boot if anything is plugged into it when you boot.

Anyone have a favorite PCIe USB 3.1 card that actually
works right?Â* Siig?


Many thanks,

On W7, I have the likes of this;

It came with a min-disk that had several drivers (Setup.exe type) on,
(turns out to have a VIA chip).
The blue socket is for a twin front panel USB3 socket.
I had a little difficulty with the bracket that didn't quite stretch to
the case (had to bend it a little).

There is also a similar version of the same with all 4 USB3 sockets at
the back;
