Even when using PCIe 3 X 16 slot on M.B.Other Thoughts:I currently have seven (7) of these Sunix USB 3.1 PCIe cards operating in five different servers that run 24/7. Two of the cards have been operational for more than 2 years. So far, I have had zero failures with these cards. Installation of these cards has been painless in the Lenovo TS140, and HP Proliant Microservers I use them in. I also use these in Lenovo SFF M82 desktops running as media servers. The included disk contains the drivers and driver install package that works very good with Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows Server OS's. I have not tried these with Linux or other OS like Windows 10. I have as many as 12 drives in External bays (some in RAID configurations) running on one of these cards and operating flawlessly.Reliability is not an issue with these cards and that is the critical criterion for me. If I had anything negative to say about these cards is that the performance of the cards in terms of transfer rates is not what I could hope for. Running a Seagate IronWolf Pro HDD running at 7200rpm with 256MB cache in an enclosure connected with USB C to USB 3.1 card connection on a PCIe 3 X 16 slot, going to an internally SATA III connected SSD, I was only able to achieve transfer speeds with a maximum of rate of 180MBps. Usually, I am getting transfer speeds in the 1Gbps (114MBps) range for transfers to/from External drives to/from Internal HDD's. Even when transferring from an external SSD to an internal SSD through a USB C cable connection to an internal SATA III bus, I have never achieved transfer speeds with large files of greater than 280 MBps. This doesn't even approach the theoretical transfer speeds for USB 3.1 (10Gbps).Overall I am very happy with the cards reliability and performance levels. That is why I own seven of these cards. I would recommend them to anyone using external enclosures with/without RAID. YMMV. For my servers running Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Server 2012, these cards are an inexpensive way to have reliable access to external storage. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great in HP DL360P Proliant Gen 8 Server with Windows Server 2016 *by S***Y on Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2020* It's always annoyed me that the USB ports on those Gen8 servers are 2.0, and this fits perfectly and works correctly with no need to download drivers. It is 3.0, however, not 3.1, but still do a nightly Veeam Agent backup of about 30 minutes--a quarter of the time it took with a 2.0 USB hard drive. This is a no-brainer for DL360P users ### ⭐ Exercise Extreme Caution - Lost All USB Drive Capability after Installing This Card *by S***T on Reviewed in the United States on November 20, 2016* I bought this card upon recommendation by a friend without my normal research. I hoped that it would give me a cheap and easy way to connect externally docked hard drives for video storage and backup. What I failed to realize before installing is that my Asus motherboard already had an ASMedia USB host controller on it for USB 3.0 ports. The ASMedia drivers for this card rendered ALL my 12 of my USB 2 and 3 ports unusable to connect USB drives (WD Passport, SanDisk, Cameras, Card Docks). Uninstalled and reinstalled USB drivers dozens of times - including via network by TeamViewer so that I did not have to rely on USB keyboard and mouse. I can't restore a complete system backup that I did prior to installing the card because my backup is on a USB WD Passport External Drive. As of this writing - after three weeks and a hundred plus hours I still have no USB drive capability. Is it worth the risk to you?
