I have a desktop computer with an old motherboard. It supports USB 3.0 but without the 20-pin connector. To solve this problem and allow USB 3.0 on the front of the case, two years ago I had to buy a cable that turns a 20-pin cable into two USB plugs. So I only stole two USB 3.0 in the back of the case. Finally the user complained. Pretty loud. Not wanting to risk penalties, I opted for a USB 3.0 card. Installation took less than 5 minutes including routing the cable, removing the case cover, removing my old 20 pin cable and installing a new card. Connect the 20-pin cable from the front of the case and restore the USB 3.0 to the front. I got my two original USB 3.0 ports back and two new USB 3.0 ports on the expansion card. I'm happy, the user is very happy and the house is quiet again... Simple solution when you need those USB ports!
