To install the plug-in card in a at computer case, a low-prole slot cover is enclosed. Remove
the long slot bracket from the plug-in card and then install the short, low-prole, slot bracket.
• Connect an appropriate power connection on your PC power adapter to the SATA power connection on the
plug-in card. Pay attention to the connector’s correct orientation and do not use any force.
If the power connection on the plug-in card is not connected to the PC power adapter, any
connected USB devices will not function!
• Connect the internal multi-pin connector (see illustration above, position 1) to the USB 3.0 ports on your
PC case (e.g. USB 3.0 front connections). Pay attention to the plug’s correct orientation.
• If necessary, secure all the cables with cable ties, so they cannot obstruct your computer’s fan.
• Close the computer housing.
• Connect your computer and monitor to the mains voltage and switch on all devices.
• If your computer does not start correctly, switch it off immediately and check all the settings and cable
connections.
Before opening the computer again, it must be disconnected from the mains voltage
again, see above!
Driver installation
• After Windows has started, it automatically recognises the plug-in card as new hardware.
• Cancel the automatic hardware recognition.
• Place the enclosed CD into an appropriate drive on your computer.
• Start the CD’s installation software (“setup.exe”), in the folder “USB3.0 Host \ NEC”, and follow all of the
software’s instructions.
It might be necessary to restart Windows, before the USB 3.0 ports on the plug-in card function
properly.
Connecting USB devices
Important:
The SATA power supply on the plug-in card must be connected to an appropriate connector
on your PC’s mains supply. Otherwise, the USB devices connected to the plug-in card will not
be recognised correctly!
a) USB 2.0/1.1 devices
• It is possible, of course, to operate all “old” USB 2.0/1.1 devices with a USB 3.0 port. Simply connect the
USB device to one of the four USB ports on the plug-in card.
• Use conventional USB 2.0/1.1 connection cables to connect the devices.
• Normally, USB 2.0/1.1 devices are not, or only slightly, faster when operated on a USB 3.0 port.
• However, if the USB 2.0 controller on the motherboard works relatively slowly it is possible, for example,
that USB 2.0 hard disks could transfer data faster via a USB 3.0 port on the plug-in card.
b) USB 3.0 devices
• In order to connect a USB 3.0 device, a USB 3.0 cable is necessary. At rst glance, the USB-A plug looks
similar to a USB2.0/1.1 plug, however, it has additional internal connector pins.
• The USB-B plug on a USB 3.0 cable, however, has a different shape.
• A USB 3.0 hard disk enclosure can also be operated on a USB 3.0/2.0/1.1 port via a conventional
USB 2.0/1.1 cable. However, a faster data transfer is not possible.
• In order to use the fast data transfer of USB 3.0, not only a USB3.0 controller is necessary but also a
USB 3.0 device and an appropriate USB 3.0 cable.
• USB 3.0 provides a theoretical data transfer of 5 GBit (approx. 600 MByte/s). The transfer speed in
practice depends, however, on the devices involved in the data transfer (internal and external hard disk),
the type of data (many small les or few large les) and many other factors.
Disposal
Electronic devices are recyclable waste and must not be disposed of in the household waste.
At the end of its service life, dispose of the product according to the relevant statutory regulations.
