| 1460624 | 2019-05-14 00:44:00 | The card you linked is pci-e x4 interface and will fit x4, x8 or x16 slots, but will not fit x1 or x2 slots. en.wikipedia.org have a read of that |

| 1460625 | 2019-05-14 02:21:00 | oh I do have have a pcie x4 slot, I didn't realise it could fit that card as it's so long, I just assumed it had to match the length . manual: PCIE1 (PCIe 2 . 0 x1 slot) is used for PCI Express x1 lane width cards . PCIE4 (PCIe 2 . 0 x16 slot) is used for PCI Express x4 lane width graphics cards . card: ( . startech . com/se/en/Cards-Adapters/USB-3 . 0/Cards/2-port-usb-3-1-card~PEXUSB312A2" target="_blank">www . startech . com) PCI Express Gen 2 . 0 max throughput is 5Gbps . Both my PCIE1/4 slots are free but they're both limited to PCIE 2 . 0 (5gbps max) so I'll settle for this cheaper card ( . startech . com/nz/Cards-Adapters/USB-3 . 0/Cards/2-Port-USB-3-PCI-Express-Card-with-SATA-Power~PEXUSB3S23" target="_blank">www . startech . com) as it fits in PCIE1 which is only 2 . 0 . |

| 1460626 | 2019-05-14 02:52:00 | I have used a 6 port USB 3.0 hub connected to a motherboard USB 3.0 port. I don't know if this would work for you as they would be all working through the one channel. I doubt that the delay if using all 6 ports at once would concern you. | Bryan (147) | ||
| 1460627 | 2019-05-14 07:16:00 | I've tried that but I actually got errors saying it was out of bandwidth. I'm using 3 devices with 2 hubs. | Vicx (11114) | ||
