I received the item quicker than expected and honestly thought I ordered the wrong card at first. After a quick glance at all expansion slots, I found the one it was suited for, so I installed the drivers, installed the card, and rebooted my laptop. Performance compared to standard USB 2 is easily double the speed for small file transfers and triple for large file transfers. I had a sustainable 30 megabytes per second transfer speed for small files, like music and documents, and a whopping 90 megabytes per second transfer speed for large files, like movies from iTunes and disk images for System Recovery. I highly recommend this product and will definitely recommend to family and friends in need! :D

Ordered this item for use with a pci express card USB 3.0 port to rest speed of micro sdxc card. My card reader and USB 2.0 showed read speed average 20mbps with this 90mbps oops proved card was genuine not fake. A great little reader.

If you want to run multiple monitors you need USB 3.0. I wanted to run multiple monitors and purchased a USB to VGA adaptor, the best resolution I could get was 800x600, after some research I found that I needed to use a 3.0 USB with the adapter so I purchased this product. I installed which was a breeze, installed the drivers that come with the unit and i now have 1920x1080. 5 Stars ******

Arrived just within the estimated time. I was a bit of tight fit and the case is a little flimsy but it connected ok and seems to work well. A reboot was required for a successful driver install (although no prompt was given). For the money it is good vaue.
