## Description

This PCI Express USB 3.2 Gen 1 card offers a cost-effective upgrade that lets you add four USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports to your computer through a PCIe slot. It offers two external ports plus two internal (IDC) USB 3.2 Gen 1 headers to help adapt your desktop or server to support a variety of USB 3.2 Gen 1 devices. Flexible and convenient port design With extra motherboard-style USB 3.2 Gen 1 headers you have the flexibility to add more internal USB 3.2 Gen 1 devices to your PC. When your existing headers are occupied, you can connect front panel hubs or card readers using this versatile alternative to costly motherboard and computer upgrades. For added convenience, the card integrates two external USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports, so you can plug in more devices such as external hard drives or printers. Simple installation and supports older devices The USB 3.2 Gen 1 card is easy to install and requires no additional drivers or software in natively supported Windows 8.1 / 8 operating systems. Plus, it features a dual profile design that fits in standard or low-profile cases, so you can rest assured it will fit in your small form-factor system if needed. Connecting older peripherals isn't a problem either. So, there's no need to purchase new devices since the adapter card is backward compatible with your USB 2.0 and 1.x technology. Effective USB 3.2 Gen 1 performance enhanced by UASP This high-performance SuperSpeed USB 3.2 Gen 1 card supports data transfer rates up to 5 Gbps and is enhanced with UASP support, which can perform ~70% faster read speed and 40% faster write speed over traditional USB 3.2 Gen 1, when paired with a UASP-enabled enclosure. The PEXUSB3S2EI is ruggedly built for reliable USB 3.2 Gen 1 device connections and is backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support. Note: UASP (USB Attached SCSI Protocol), is supported in Windows 8, 8.1, Server 2012 and Linux kernel 2.6.37 or later. Test results were obtained using an Intel Ivy Bridge system, StarTech.com add-on USB 3.2 Gen 1 cards, a UASP-enabled StarTech.com enclosure, and a SATA III solid-state drive.

Review: Works beautifully - I had another product previous to this one and it didn't work very well this one worked immediately without having to install any drivers whatsoever. Fired up my Elgato Facecam and was able to get 1080fps60 with no issues. And it was very inexpensive which was a huge Plus. I've heard good things about Startech and I can confirm that this product fit with no issues and is compatible with windows 11. Runs smoooooth! Now I can stack more webcams for the stream!

Review: Needed 2 more USB ports. - I have a Corsair 7000D airflow case. It has 4 USB 3.2 gen1 ports on the front header. But my Motherboard can only supply 2 of them. This card supplied the other 2 ports. It was recognized instantly, and windows found the driver by itself. It has 2 ports on the back of the card, but I won't need those. I am only using the internal header to connect to the front panel. It also has a Sata power connecter to supply power for the higher wattage charging standard of USB 3.0 (3.2 gen 1) It was inexpensive and works great.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice upgrade
*by A***D on May 22, 2021*

I got this to upgrade the USB 3 situation in my aging computer to take advantage of UASP, which my motherboard does not support. I have noticed a big upgrade in transfer speeds to external drives, especially the external SSD drive. Installation is easy if you are comfortable working inside of computers. Since I have been building them for over 20 years, no problems there. I use this in my Xubuntu box and it works flawlessly. I would not hesitate to get this for another computer, if I needed one.
