Low-Profile Supported ? 02/13/2014
This review is from: Mediasonic HP1-SU3 USB 3.0 2 Port External USB 3.0 PCI Express Card - LINUX Software RAID supported
Pros:
I'm sure it works fine. Got it for free with a 2u server chassis I bought.
Cons:
No low-profile pci mount.
Overall Review:
I received this for free with a 2u server chassis. Unfortunately it is useless unless I want a gaping hole into my box and a loose card because it doesn't come with a low-profile mount. It does say on the box. "Low profile mount supported"...but doesn't come with one. Yes I suppose it doesn't quite say "Low-Profile Mount Included" So that's why I blame (mostly) the chassis company for their incompetence. So moral of the story, Low-Profile mount supported does not mean it comes with one. Don't feel bad if it fools you though because apparently it fooled an entire server chassis manufacturing company and myself. Also, upon further thinking, one may think, "Well where do I get the low profile bracket for this thing that supports low profile brackets." Beats me, you know its not like you can go out and buy a standard interchangeable for everything low profile bracket.
This is almost like selling a coffee machine and saying to the customer "coffee pot supported" and not including the product only specific coffee pot.
