This card is self-powered by the PCI-E port of the PC, avoiding the use of an internal power cable, unlike most USB 3.0 cards, greedy enough electricity consumption.
Like all Inateck products, it is carefully packed in a box, accompanied by a technical manual in English, sufficiently detailed, and a CD containing drivers, with a simplified installation process that facilitates commissioning . The KT4005 card must be installed in the PC before installing the driver. The manufacturer has pushed attention to detail to provide the screw securing the card to the chassis of the PC. The driver is compatible with all versions of Windows from XP to Win 8, 32 and 64 bits. On a PC "mixed" USB 2.0 / USB 3.0, one USB 3.0 will recognize this card to the blue color of its connectors.
Once the card and its driver installed, transfer speeds are bluffing! ... Windows 7 Pro 32bit, they commonly exceed 150Mb / s with USB 3.0 external enclosure Inateck FEU3NS-1E, or about 4 times faster that with a USB 2.0 connection. It is as if we had put a turbo in the PC!
Contrary to a comment from another user, I have had no problems simultaneously connect two self-powered external drives and make transfers from one disk to another, while retaining the speed of USB 3.0.
The KT4005 card allowed me to give new life to my old PC (Vostro 400 / Intel Core2 E8500) by offering transfer performance comparable to current PC.
