Utilising an ASMedia ASM3142 chipset, this card harnesses the speed of USB 3.2 Gen 2. With higher data throughput support, this USB 3.2 Gen 2 PCIe expansion card is a necessity for external drives and many other USB 3.2 Gen 2 peripherals and includes an optional SATA power connector for high power devices. The card is backward compatible with USB 3.2 Gen 1 and USB 3.0 (5Gbps), as well as USB 2.0 (480mbps) devices. The card works with newer USB-C devices, but can easily support your existing USB-A peripherals using inexpensive USB Type C cables and adapters.
