2009 Mac Pro upgrade

Increased my quantity of USB ports as well as increased the speed of the USB transfer rate.
by WIll from TX on

Oh my my my...

Let me start by saying that this USB 3.0 PCIE Host Card is ridiculously powerful. It's strong enough to run an expansion USB port they can run hard drives and stream files if wanted. This particular card has way surpassed my expectations and has allowed my studios to have the ability to expand numerous channels of 3.0 fast file exchange and power capability. Definitely a must-buy if you own a Creation Station computer. The installation is keep it simple stupid and I would imagine nearly impossible to mess up. It literally is plug-in play. I definitely would buy this again.
