Most helpful customer reviews 41 of 41 people found the following review helpful. Small, efficient, effortless By Strohmian I stumbled upon this card after I could not get the cheaper and SATA6- equipped Asus U3S6 to work. Unlike the Asus, this Buffalo is tiny, fits into a PCIEx1 - slot, and runs completely cool despite the fact that it requires extra power from a floppy- type connector. An included Y- cable lets you siphon off a SATA power connector instead. The driver from the CD installs a NEC USB3 hub - I don't mind the rebranding, as NEC means more to me than Buffalo - and it all works just like it should, plug & play, even under the elderly Win XP. 51 of 56 people found the following review helpful. Recommend Buffalo over Asus By J.A.P. I recommend Buffalo's USB 3.0 PCI-E card over the Asus U3S6 Asus U3S6 True USB 3.0 & True SATA 6Gb/s Support Motherboard, at least for Dell desktops. I purchased the Asus U3S6 and it was only slightly better than USB 2.0, peaking around 24 MB/s. I have an older system, a Dell XPS 420, so it isn't going to be as fast as the best out there. However, the Buffalo card is peaking around 75 MB/s (I posted a pic above), 3x faster than the Asus card. I think I read that the Buffalo driver utilizes RAM to increase read/write speed, but I doubt that fully explains the 3x increase over the Asus card. I think that the Asus just doesn't play nice with my older system. Another reason to avoid the Asus U3S6 is that it has a bad driver that crashes many systems/motherboards. There is a review that mentions this on the Asus U3S6 Amazon page. I wrote a review myself to warn others, but Amazon didn't/wouldn't post it. When I first loaded the drivers for the Asus card, it froze my system. I had no other choice but to do a forced-reboot. Then neither of my SATA drives were recognized by the system. The crash was caused by the AHCI driver for the e-SATA port on the Asus card. If you have a Dell, and you insist on getting the Asus USB 3.0 card, beward of the AHCI driver. I was able to do a System Restore, which got rid of the AHCI driver. After the recovery, I only loaded the Asus USB 3.0 driver. This went much better. However, as I mentioned above, the performance of the Asus card was only slightly better than my USB 2.0 ports, peaking at 24MB/s. The USB 3.0 drive was the same for both. They were both tested within a week of each other. 28 of 29 people found the following review helpful. Works just perfect By Steven I installed this USB 3.0 card on my Win7 64 system and it works flawlessly together with the Buffalo USB 3.0 drive station. Average file copy speed is 94 Mb/sec with a 12 ft. cable, this is awesome to say at least. See all 66 customer reviews...
