USB 3.0 PCIe Card by Inateck - 2 Ports, 20-Pin Internal Connector, Mac Pro Compatible, No Extra Power Required

This PCIe card adds two USB 3.0 ports to compatible systems using a 20-pin internal connector. It is designed for desktop computers with available PCI Express slots and is particularly useful for older machines that lack sufficient USB 3.0 ports. The card supports transfer speeds up to 5 Gbps, though actual performance depends on the connected devices and system configuration. It is compatible with various Windows versions and Mac OS X 10.8.2 and later, with drivers included for most systems.

The card does not require an external power source for standard operation, making it easy to install and use without additional hardware. It includes a low-profile bracket for secure installation in smaller cases and comes with a driver CD for systems that need it. Windows XP and Vista users should be aware that their transfer speeds may fall between USB 2.0 and 3.0 due to OS limitations. The included user manual provides guidance for setup and troubleshooting.

The card is ideal for users looking to upgrade their system's connectivity without replacing the entire motherboard. It supports high-speed data transfers for external storage devices, printers, and other peripherals that benefit from USB 3.0 speeds. However, it is not suitable for systems without a free PCI Express slot or those that require more than two additional USB ports.
