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.
Needed a few USB 3.0 slots. All three slots are functionning once the provided driver (on the CD) is loaded. Went to the web site to find a newer driver but I see no difference.
product as described. Thanks.
Comes with low profile bracket. Sound is great compared to onboard sound component.
I have used these cards in a couple of 2012 Essentials servers handling storage spaces. No problems. Has headers for hard drive activity LED's.
It worked fine until a lightning hit took out some components. Some were obviously burned, but although this card looked OK, the computer wouldn't work until I unplugged the card. I used it with WinXP and Win7. I'll probably get an identical card to replace it -- unless I buy PCIe.
The adapter works right out the box. No software to install. No complicated installation. No messing around with BIOS settings.It's an easy way to get NVMe speed without a M.2 slot.Their customer service is superior. I emailed a question to them and received a prompt and personal reply the same day. You can shop with confidence.
Used to recover data from a fried lenovo yoga. Drive Model: MZ - MTD2560/OL1
Read and write speeds are excellent, limited more by the NVME controller than anything else. No special drivers required, Win 10 x64 installed the card correctly and recognized the attached nvme drive when I first logged in after installing the card.
Allows me to use an NVMe drive on an older C300 chipset board.
