Review on πŸ”Œ SIENOC USB 3.0 to USB 2.0 Adapter Cable - 20 Pin Male to 9 Pin Motherboard Housing – Male/Female by Kevin Bucher

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A little flimsy but fully functional

The adapter arrived quickly, at least 2 days ahead of schedule. I opened it up, removed the cable management panel from my desktop, installed it and it was up and running in 5 or 10 minutes. As long as it keeps working at full power. However, I had an issue with the shrink tubing at the junction of the cable and 20-pin connector. It seems that the last process was overlooked. It was an easy fix, but I was concerned that the tube would either come loose on its own or I'd hit it when installing. I never use force unless the connector is firmly clamped. I learned the lesson from my first build about 26 years ago that excessive force can damage the motherboard, the board input, or the cable itself. Disabling input from your board minutes before bootstrap is devastating to say the least. In any case, the item works as said, but just this last little process in the manufacturing process will definitely make me think twice about which manufacturer I buy outdated and cheap parts from. lol. Conclusion: The item is fully functional, although I had to attach the hose it only took a few minutes of my time (which is always worth it) and for the little effort is great value for money. against increased productivity now that this machine is part of my production and product assembly again

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
