Works well: Internal components

Works well. The driver seems to buffer the data a bit before sending it to the OS, so there is some data lag compared to most USB to serial converters, but I like the reliability of the PCI bus driven serial port .

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • Long time

Guess which driver!

As many have said, finding the right driver from all the options on the included mini DVD is no easy task! I am using Windows 10 64 bit.ETCHED In the card I found WCH382SSAL In the driver list on the DVD I found CH382XDRV matching "CH382", let me try. It's an .EXE that works and works pretty well. I hope this saves you some frustration.

Pros
  • Expensive but decent
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Attention buyers - do not buy.

DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM. The drivers did not work on Windows 10 and gave an error - a non-existent device was specified. The documentary was typical Chinese - terrible. Installing and uninstalling and rebooting didn't help. This article does not work. Buyer Warning.

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Nothing

Good Quality and Versatility

A great way to add true serial ports to desktop computers at a very affordable price. The quality was good and the equipment provided allowed for full or half height work.

Pros
  • Best in Niche
Cons
  • Factor Set

Run away! Unwanted product

These boards are broken, they don't send files properly. Removes random charters. I purchased a StarTech board and within minutes files were being sent correctly. BUY STARTEC!

Pros
  • A dream come true
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine

Connection for plotter and cutter

Easy and convenient connection. My plotter works fine with the addition of this map. Windows 10 installed the drivers and ran like a champ with no issues!

Pros
  • Excellent value for money
Cons
  • Useless functions

Use the StarTech card instead.

This is a cheap Chinese import card with a simple chipset. It's overpriced at $22, and you spend a lot of time installing and configuring it due to poor documentation and cost-cutting stupidity. There are 2 COM ports but they are not labeled so only trial and error can determine which is #1 and which is #22. disk, and there is no link to download drivers from either site3. Drivers are not labeled or organized by operating system or type. You will get folders like "MCS9865IV-BA+driver+101007"…

Pros
  • Everything seems so far
Cons
  • Operating speed
