Am I doing something wrong? I purchased this card specifically so that my new External HD would run at 3.0 speeds …** A: It is difficult to get achieve higher speeds using HD. You will only be able to use the same bandwidth USB 3.0 SSD. HD has common access time slow and do not develop high-speed reads and writes that can use the usb 3.0. But try to do a test with a software Benchmark using USB2.0 and then 3.0 and see the difference. I used to test the software ATTO = http://www.techpowerup.com/downloads/1749/atto-disk-benchmark-v2-46/ ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Works perfectly on Linux 4.4 kernel and supports UASP through UAS module *by K***N on Reviewed in India on 13 March 2016* Works perfectly with Linux as n earlier reviewer has also mentioned.LSPCI output :~/scripts/lspci_modulesBus VID:PID Driver Description07:00.0 1912:0015 xhci_hcd Renesas Technology Corp. uPD720202 USB 3.0 Host ControllerChipset uPD720202 is BEST supported under Linux fro USB 3.0 host controller. Refer :[...]What is the state of support on Linux?The NEC/Renesas µPD720200 is the most widely used and tested USB 3.0 chipset. For Linux, kernel driver code was first provided in kernel 2.6.31. Driver code is in drivers/usb/host/xhci*. USB 3.0 has been receiving active work and improvements in later kernels.

The Asmedia ASM1042 was the only chip for which Windows 7 support could be found and is now blacklisted by all OS due to chip bugs so Windows 7 does not support UASP.To get UASP you need 3 components.OS Support: Windows 8, Windows 10, LinuxUSB controller support: Any USB 2 or 3+ interface that doesn't have UASP blacklisted.UASP ready peripherals: UASP standards solidified near the end of USB 3.0 development so most USB 3.0 storage products are not UASP compatible. Some buggy chips were produced so some products claiming UASP support have been blacklisted. Hopefully most USB 3.1 products will include UASP support. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Very Nice Product *by A***H on Reviewed in India on 16 September 2016* A very nice product, compatible with almost all motherboards.
