Review on πŸ”Œ I/O Crest 2 Port PCIe SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Card Adapter with UASP, SATA Power, Renesas Chipset by Billy Branch

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The old chipset isn't worth it

Ordered SD-PEX20158 for my Windows 10 pcs. I've encountered USB throughput issues on several PS3 eye and kinect v2 webcams. This card will not work with Kinect v2 but will work with PS3 Dual Eyes. However, my experience with the card is limited. The card does not wake up properly and each USB device has to be reconnected every time you go to sleep/hibernate or turn off the computer. This was annoying, so I rearranged my USB devices and used a card with some USB hubs instead. Everything was fine until one of the ports stopped working after a reboot and required some adjustments to get it working properly again. I tried the default Windows drivers and the old 2013 drivers and the problem is still there. I would not recommend this card.

Pros
  • Fits a lot
Cons
  • Some small things
