## Overview

The StarTech.com 5-Port USB PCIe Card boosts your desktop or server with four external USB-C 10Gbps ports and one internal USB-A 10Gbps port via a PCIe x4 slot. Powered optionally through SATA, it delivers up to 15W per USB-C port, supports plug-and-play across major OS platforms, and fits both standard and small form factor cases, making it the ultimate upgrade for high-speed, versatile USB connectivity.

## Description

Upgrade or expand a desktop or server's USB connectivity by adding four external USB Type-C 10Gbps ports and one internal USB Type-A 10Gbps port via a single PCI Express x4 connection. The ASM3142 controller supports USB 3.2 transfer speeds of up to 10Gbps, making it ideal for transferring large files or editing high-resolution photos and videos on external storage devices. This USB PCIe expansion card can receive supplemental power through SATA power, providing up to 5V 3A (15W) per USB Type-C port and 5V 1.5A (7.5W) on the USB Type-A port when motherboard power is insufficient. The PCI Express USB card drivers auto-install in most major operating systems, including Windows 8 and up, macOS, and Linux. It works with hardware platforms such as Intel, AMD, and Apple Silicon and fits in PCI Express x4, x8, and x16 slots. Additionally, the USB expansion card comes with a pre-installed standard profile bracket and includes a low-profile bracket for compatibility with small form factor (SFF) desktops and servers.

Review: I needed usb c ports on my pc This card does the job. easy to install.
Review: Plug and Play exactly as described! Keep in mind it does NOT come with a SATA power adapter, but luckily I had a couple extra from my PSU that I hadn't used yet. Main purpose for purchasing for me was to isolate my mouse and keyboard on the main USB hub for gaming, for better filtering and response times / latency. And then I used this PCIE host controller to plug in my audio DAC and video camera separately. Installation was easy even with a x16 PCIE slot. Did not have to download drivers and worked immediately. So far it's posted every time, no issues with it randomly not working. Also I saw a review which said this PCIE card doesn't work with MSI motherboard's, I have a z690 and have had absolutely no issues. I believe that user may have not installed it properly, had issues with their system, or it might have just been a bad one of the batch and they got unlucky. Either way, this little PCIE card as been fantastic so far and I highly recommend it!

*by A***ー on 24 March 2022*

DACへ繋ぐオーディオ用途で買ってみました。 ASMedia ASM3142が搭載されたUSB2ポートのPCIEカードとしては大変高額ですが価格に見合う質感をしています。商品写真通りに綺麗な基盤レイアウトでチップから端子までの距離が近くてロスが無さそうです。 早速、MSI Z690 Carbonに取り付けてみたところ残念ながら使えませんでした。BIOSのアップデートや違うPCIEなど一通り試しましたがUEFI上で認識せず何もできません。英国のレビュアーも同じトラブルが出ているのでMSI Z690シリーズとの相性問題だと思います。
