Not so great. in I/O Port Maps

Bought for use on a computer running Windows 10. After installing it I wanted to try it due to some bad reviews. I used a 5 gigabyte file to transfer between two external hard drives. I tried it 4 times and it completely locked up the computer and had to turn it off with the power button each time. To make sure it was the card, I plugged two drives into the factory 3.0 ports and tried the file. again. Replanted three times with no problems. There is no doubt that the problem is with the newly installed card. I would recommend this to anyone looking for one of these passes. 2 stars because it fits snugly and is powered by the SATA power connector. The data transfer did not suit me.

Pros
