Coboc 3.5FP-U3-20PSPL2A Dual Ports USB 3.0 to 20pin Header 3.5" Floppy Bay Internal Bracket Front Panel w/ HD audio & mic - 3.5"tray USB 3.0 20pin to 2 Ports Type A Female

Pros: I needed mainly to update my front panel USB 2.0 inputs to 3.0. This was an easy install, it occupied the space of a former vintage floppy disc. Works great, and the price is right.

Cons: none yet

Pros: Fits snugly and looks great. Plenty of length on the wires for my mid size case.

Cons: USB ports are a little tight to begin with. Will see how it goes after time.

Overall Review: Great replacement if your stock front panel input/ output goes bad and you need or want USB 3.0.

Pros: Seems to be well built, works fine and the price was right.

Cons: None

Overall Review: If you really need an 80 cm USB 3.0 cable length you will find the cable to be closer to 60 cm. I have a full tower case and both cables were long enough when I mounted the device at mid height. The audio cable was a little too short for the device to be mounted higher because the connection to the MB is at the furthest possible point. An extension cable for the audio is fairly cheap but I'm happy the way it is.

Pros: USB 3 and Audio work as expected This is a good way to modernize an old case to use USB 3

Cons: The depth dimension is very short (approx 50% of a floppy disk) and there is only one set of mounting holes on the bottom. This means that, if you must use bottom mounting (as I did), you can mount the device at only one depth relative to the front of the case, In my low-profile case, floppy disks, CD-ROM's, etc. have to "stick out" about 3.4" inch to match the front of the case. CD-ROM and floppy are long enough and have screw holes at multiple depths to accommodate this. Also, the sides are very low (approx 1/4 inch) whereas a floppy drive is 3/4 inch high. This means that the side mount holes are too low and do not match up well with the floppy mount point holes in the 3.5" bay on my case. In the end, I mounted this device in a 3.5"-to-5.25" bracket. -- so I got the functionality I wanted, but this should not be necessary

Overall Review: I think that all 3.5" bay inserts should have the same outside dimensions and both side and bottom mounting screw hole patterns as a floppy disk drive. This is what the bay was designed for and what case manufacturers use as a standard. Also, when a young person asks "why all these mount point patterns?", us old-timers can regale them with tales of when the big upgrade in storage was going from 160KB floppy disks to 320KB disks.

Pros: Installs easily, metal body, fits in my full-sized tower. They must have changed the cord length, my MB has the audio connector on the far rear bottom and the audio cable reached easily.

Cons: Not for me, but some people might need a 5" bay adapter which doesn't come with this item. I had an empty 3.5" bay, though. Fits nicely.

Overall Review: I would have no problem recommending this to anyone who wants USB ports and audio hookups on the front of their case.

Pros: This product does what it is advertised to do. Nothing negative. but excellent addition to have if you are using USB 3.

Cons: No Cons, None to think of

Overall Review: Other thoughts, well , been reading reviews stating the unit failed. If the unit is not responding, Try updating your drivers on your motherboard and operating system of choice. outdated drivers do cause hiccups in the operation of many added products. One other thing to point out, Did you all know that the power supply is the heart of the desktop tower? Yes if the advertised unit doesn't function, the power supply on your desktop is going to fail. Just remember, the power supply unit supplies the power to all components. If the power supply is 100% functioning, then all components will work just fine.

Pros: Good clean and sturdy design

Cons: The length of the cable is not 80 cm as advertised, its 60 cm. I can't use it in my custom build because it wont reach the pins on the MOBO. Will have to order an extension.

Overall Review: Im sure

Pros: Works great

Cons: I had to delete the audio drivers and reinstall them. Thanks to Google and those that post things on forums.

Overall Review: Works great after reinstalling audio drivers.
