This card installed into the computer easily, and other than slowing the bootup the first time, needed no new drivers on my Windows 10 machine. Just works, both via the back ports with my ASUS ROG keyboard plugged in exteriorly, and the USB3 connector to the front of my case, is sync'ing my iPhone now without problems.
(I ended up not using with the new SD card reader, because my cable management was neater this way)
The quality seems good - sturdy, seems well built. And from Germany, so probably good quality. Came in a professional box, with screws, a case plate with USB 3 labels on it, and a good little instruction book and mini-CD. But I did not even read the direction manual before installing. Just popped it in, did not install drivers or anything. Works fine, no Windows warnings.
I had put my older systems in newer cases that had front USB3 support, but the cords were just tucked away since neither motherboard supported front USB3... I decided to see if there was some way of adding Front USB3 support to my older systems when I noticed you could get a PCI-E card to do it... but all of them required an extra power cord, and I was really trying to keep my systems with good cable management and didn't want extra power cords floating around, when I came across this card from Inateck.
All I can say is... WOW... performs exactly as advertised... it truly is plug-and-play... *both these older systems run Win7, and all I had to do was plug the cards into the PCI-E slot, plug-in the front USB3 cord from the case... fire up the system, insert the included driver disc and in seconds the drivers were installed and everything worked. (*I since upgraded one of the systems to Win10 and can confirm this card works in Win10 as well without any issues at all).
I have a USB thumbdrive that gets "uppity" when I plug it into a USB2 port and it always likes to say "i'd be faster in a USB3 port"... I put my thumbdrive in all ports, front and back, and it was very happy with the USB3 support. Nice to have truth in advertising... this is truly a plug-and-play card that installs quick and easy in the oldest of systems, works with older OS's like Win7 and doesn't require any additional power inputs. I bought two for my systems and am very happy to breath new life into some older PCs.

This card was a sight-for-sore-eyes as I was having trouble locating a card that did not require additional power. The card came well packed and included a half-height expansion slot bracket, that I did not need but was good to see anyway as I could see applications where it would be necessary.
I installed the 1X card in my last 16X slot easily and it was immediately recognized upon start up of Windows. At first I tried to use the card using the included Windows driver and it saw the devices that were connected, but as soon as I tried to access them, it was almost like they lost power. I restarted and got the same behavior. I decided to use the included installation CD to use the driver that is supplied with the card and once that was installed the card has worked flawlessly. The driver installation was extremely easy as they tell you how to identify which version of the driver you need based on card color.
I have been using the card to access USB Card Readers and USB Thumb Drives and it has performed admirably. While I can attest to some speed loss versus the included motherboard header it is minimal and very acceptable given that it is an unpowered card.
Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase and hope to see continued use of the card over the long term with limited hiccups. The card installed easily, was immediately recognized and once the supplied driver was installed it has been working flawlessly.
The USB ports are upside down on my model. You have to put the cable in upside-down compared to all of the other USB ports I've seen. Just something to get used to with this model.
Crucial 500 SSD USB 2.0 vs Inateck USB 3.0 PCIe 1X adapter:
Random 16 Read: 25.01 MB/s -> 137.26 MB/s
Sequential 64 Read: 33.28 MB/s ->178.33 MB/s
Sequential 64 Write: 31.21 MB/s -> 133.04 MB/s
Latency: 2.081 ms -> 0.570 ms
I consider this a big win for my 2008 Dell Studio XPS which still runs great in 2020.
Top reviews from other countries
Upgraded and older gen3 intel I-3570 motherboard (lenovo M91p) and needed to upgrade to usb 3.0 to have my VR work.
Long story short, my NVIDIA GTX 970 width size was blocking my PCIE 1x slot (the only one available to make this card work). So had to purchase and extender (GLOTRENDS 1X to 1X PCI-E Extension Cable 0.6M for Limited Space Installation) that fits in the slot underneath the video car space in the pcie 1x slot, and permitted me to have this Inatek installed.
Thank god for Amazon!
Then get the relevant driver from the inateck website. Have updated a 6yr old Intel board and a 9yr old AMD board without any issues.
Mac OS標準的でこのカード(コントローラーチップ)をサポートしているので、追加ドライバーソフトのインストールの必要もなく、プラグアンドプレイでした。
今まではMac Pro本体のUSB(2.0)で外部ハードディスクやSDカードリーダーに繋いでいたのですが、読み書きともすごく時間がかかっていました。USB3.0の速度は素晴らしいです。
USB3.0対応のWDポータブルハードディスクにてベンチマークテストを行いましたが、ほぼハードディスクの性能を叩き出しているようです。(写真3枚目)
