Doing a rebuild using a 25yr old motherboard with PCI/ISA bus. This PCI card is recognized by Win98 but drivers are not included with the product, are not all present on the Win98CD (original or Second Update) and links in the paperwork sent with the card no longer work (not really surprised after 25 years). Fortunately drivers are available at www.philscomputerlab.com/windows-98-usb-storage-driver.html in the file nusb36e.exe. Run the EXE under Win98 before installing the card. All Win98 drivers will load automatically upon powerup after card installation. Now I can use USB keys to move files rather than floppy disk or CD. Having fun playing Doom 2.

Received quickly, looked over instructions, installed drivers, inserted card and restated. Took less than 10 minutes. So far so good.

Looks to be well made with the SATA ports attached solidly to the card (I purchased a few from other manf. in the past where the SATA ports broke or became loose and I had to super-glue them back on). Easy install: -- driver support as far back as kernel 4.18.16-300.fc29.x86_64, so happy about that! -- came with power and SATA cables - so it's a complete package for the price.

Make sure your PCI slot is operational. Otherwise it's simple, Lowered my MB temperature at least 6 degrees Celsius.


+ Works very well


Used this to expand the number of drives in a smallish Ubuntu home server. Still testing, but seems flawless so far and transparent to the user - just more drives available. All I did was power down, plug it in the PCIe 3.0 slot, attach a couple drives, and power up. Drives were recognized immediately and accessible like all the others. They claim max throughput of 277MB/s but so far both drives tested at 500 MB/s+ the same as when plugged into the mobo ports. I assume the limited speed might occur if multiple drives were accessed at once. Since it's a server and I'm using this to add SSDs, i doubt I will ever notice any slow downs. Bonus: the 6 provided SATA cables have locking connectors and are of a reasonable length.


Allows me to use an NVMe drive on an older C300 chipset board.

I was a little worried that I wouldn't be able to install the correct drivers as I don't have a disc drive on this pc. but windows was able to get it done without me doing anything.

Build quality High Speed Works great


An update to rkb's review on 6/17/10, the supplied CD install disc now includes the current driver for Win 7 Pro 64 bit. It installed perfectly and works fine. The driver on the disc is the current Ver 2.0.3.0. I checked the asix.com.tw/download page for the MCS9901 driver and their file Windows 8.1/8.0/7/Vista/XP 64-bit Driver is also Ver 2.0.3.0. Use this website to check for future versions.

Easy to install on an Asus P755D MBD. running Windows 7 64 bit. Windows asks for the drivers, just run the disk. I already had 2 USB 3.0 needed more and this card works. Same speed as the on board USB 3.0


Easy to Install, Sturdy, fast speeds

This has been the only successful way I have been able to connect my 20 year old camera to my computer to transfer video. I'm using a Sony DCR-TRV10 camera to transfer mini DV tapes to USB for long term storage and access.

It works well!
