   This has been a great little card; inexpensive and works great. A 4.2GB file transfered with this card to my USB 3.0 hard drive in about 45 seconds, as opposed to the same drive on USB 2.0 taking 2.5 minutes.

   The challenge is that they don’t have drivers for Mac OS X. Fortunately you can get those drivers from the osx86 guys and they work perfectly on your mac!

   Do a google search for “MultiBeast Mountain Lion” and you should find a post from tonymacx86 talking about the release. (there is one for Lion and one for Snow Leopard as well). You’ll have to register for the forum to download the MultiBeast installer, then when you run it follow this path:

   Drivers & Bootloaders -> Drivers -> Miscellaneous, then check “USB 3.0 – 3rd Party”

   After installation you may have to restart the computer. It should now work!

   This is a no frills card, but it works well. It fit snuggly in my Lenovo ThinkPad T410. It won’t pull out if you unplug the USB cable. I tested that both USB ports can be operating at the same time.

   I saw posts on gmyle /product_p/3100.htm website that drivers for Fresco Logic 100x and ASMedia 104x worked. I searched the Hardware ID from Device Manager and it matched the ASMedia 104x chipset. So I downloaded the latest drivers (v1.16.2) from station-drivers dot com /page/asmedia.htm and it is working fine. It appears in device manager as ASMedia XHCI Controller.

   Pros:
   Cheap
   Works as advertised

   Cons:
   Very basic packaging and driver CD is useless.

   I’m very satisfied with the purchase and would recommend it.

   I upgraded to Windows 8 on my sony vaio laptop and then installed the Startech ECUSB351 USB 3.0 Expresscard Adapter.HUGE, aggravating mistake….Usb 3.0 connection constantly dropped, reloaded, dropped. I tried reinstalling drivers thru device manager, but finally gave up. Installing on a 2nd laptop (Windows 7) didn’t work any better.
   I then purchased the *****GMYLE Expresscard 34mm to USB 3.0 Adapter, which was half the price of the Startech. The GMYLE installed easily and fits snugly in the PCI slot. GREAT, inexpensive product. Connection is 100{b81fbfd19e1fca5890798868c0714c408bbd5ec471654b6f9630c0fffa6e7eb3} and USB 3.0 port works flawlessly….
