MSI GX620 Compatibility to usb 3.0 express card

Hi
i have GX620 and i recently bought this USB 3.0 2TB Hard drive:
http://go.iomega.com/en/products/external-hard-drive-desktop/prestige-amp-professional-desktop-series/prestige-usb3/?partner=4745#tech_specsItem_tab
to have it working by the standard transfer rate of usb 3.0
i bought this USB 3.0 express card:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330630032087
the transfer rates are quite slow 30-40 Mbps
not much more then i get with normal USB 2.0
im asking if the GX620 should be compatible to work with this kind of express card
and for this kind of transfer rates of USB 3.0 ?
thank you
Yossi

Hey mark327 do you know if i can use this card as well with this driver?

USB 3.0 express card for Macbook Pro on Lion?

Does anybody know a USB 3.0 express card that works with Macbook Pro using Lion?
I just got an IOGear express card from Amazon that did NOT make it clear that it was Windows only.
Only after I tried to install it was it painfully obvious it was Windows only.
Thanks

USB Adapter for Express Card??

I have a Verizon ExpressCard (PC770) that I use with my Dell laptop. Is there an adapter that will allow me to use it through my USB port on my MacBook?

To the best of my knowledge, no. That card appears to be PCI-based and the existing USB ExpressCard adapters will only work with USB-based ExpressCards.
Regards.

R61i USB 3.0, 54mm EXPRESS CARD adapter

Hi there again.
After doing all the possible upgrades on my laptop ThinkPad R61i TYPE 7650-D7G 15.4in,
I have this problem with the Express Card slot.
I've bought this 54mm USB 3.0 express card but when I stick it into the slot it doesn't seem to fit. It just gets into the slot without "locking" anywhere.
So my question is this. Is there something wrong with my card (new buy) or doesn't my laptop accept such a card?
Is it just a CardBus slot? And if so, is there a way (adapter, hardware) to use my USB 3.0 Express Card?
Here's a photo of the card I bought. This cable came with the Express Card. Don't really know what it's for... It seems that one end goes into the slot between the Card's 2 usb slots.

Thanx a lot.
just found this... would this work or won't i get the actual usb 3.0 speed?

To answer the question in your first post, the USB cable that came with the ExpressCard was for power. The other end would have connected to one of your laptop's existing USB ports. You would've used that for certain devices which required more power, in which case you would've only gained 1 USB 3.0 port, not 2
The picture of your laptop (with the "O" on the eject button) means you definitely have a CardBus PC Card slot, not an ExpressCard slot. You won't be able to use that ExpressCard. PC Card, also referred to as PCMCIA card, is an older, slower technology. As you now realize, a 68-pin Cardbus PC card will fit that slot. If your objective is to gain extra USB ports, your best bet is to return that ExpressCard and search for "usb pc card" online. There are PC Cards which provide 2 USB ports or even 4 USB ports. However, you will be limited to USB 2.0 speeds. Yes, you could use a CardBus-to-ExpressCard Adapter but, once again, you will be limited to USB 2.0 speeds. (Also note the one you link to in your first post converts PC Card to ExpressCard/34 only). An even more inexpensive solution may be a "USB port hub."

Have a great day. (I do not work for Lenovo)

Pb with X200, NEC based USB 3.0 PCI card and external USB 3.0 HD

Hello, I ordered a USB 3.0 Express Card based on the NEC chipset. I am using a Lenovo X200 under XP SP3 and I have an external Buffalo Ministation USB3.0 HD. No problem to install the Express Card driver, the card is recognized but the HD won't mount. I have the USB connection beep and in the next 10 sec the USD disconnection beep. This is not a low power issue, I connected to the Express Card a power supply and have the same issue. In addition, this config, Express Card and Ministation Buffalo just work fine on a T60 under Windows 7. Any idea? Many thanks ! Tom

I have looked at several options and would be happy to go with either eSata or USB 3.0. I have heard some bad reviews about the USB 3.0 PCI offerings out there though.
On the one hand, I have an unused eSata enclosure so I would not have to buy one, on the other hand a few USB 3.0 ports on the machine would allow grerater expandability with a USB 3.0 hub hung off the back. ( can you get eSata hubs? never thought of that until just now)
The nearest thing to an eSATA hub is a 'SATA port-multiplier'. This allows connecting up to 4 SATA drives to a single SATA port.
Note: Not all SATA or eSATA cards support 'port-multiplier' functionality. The CalDigit card says it does support port-multiplier enclosures, what this means is that a single eSATA cable can be connected to an external box containing multiple SATA drives and see and use them all.

[Vox] MSI VOX TV BOX USB 2.0 problem with audio drivers compatibility

Ok,let's go...
I have a DELL Latitude d510 laptop with a centrino 1.73 GHz procesor and a soundcard supported by Sigmatel software Sigmatel C-Major audio.I bought MSI VOX TV BOX USB 2.0 and tried to install it on my lap top.Yes,I had problems with SP2 on my XP and the MSIVPS software from the instalation CD was crashing every time I tried to start it,but I solved those problems by downloading the latest drivers and the 3.xx version of MSIPVS.But...I still have a problem with audio.To be precise it seems that my audio drivers are incompatible with the VOX drivers.So now I have video but I don't have audio.Also I installed the tv card on my desktop machine and it worked like a charm(everything workes:audio,video,the old MSIPVS which I like better than the new one cause it supports my remote,has better way of managing scanned channels,e.t.c ,but I have USB 1.1 on my MB so the image quality is very poor).I did a lot of experimenting,for example i uninstaled my audio drivers(that Sigmatel C-Major thing),and installed the old MSIVPS and guess what...IT WORKED but there is no use from this cause I don't have audio On the other hand if I have everything installed then in the MSIVPS (the 3.xx version not the old one) under audio I get CD Player as an input audio device(what happened with microphone...?).To cut the long story short I tried a bunch of things and still no audio.Is there any other case of DELL audio software-VOX incompatibility?Any ideas,or solutions?

thank you for answering me. y have no pci card working, only usb 2.0 and sata devices. also, the MSI geforce 9600gt PExp 2.0 gpu. the only usb 2.0 devices which work, are the flash (pen) drives, keyboard and mouse. but no way that the WLAn adapter and TVcapture, both usb 2.0 work.i've tested them front side and rear side and is the same failure: if i use a pendrive, works ok. if i insert the wlan or the tv capture stop work as the 2.0 and a advertising window tell me to change to a 2.0 port, means the ports are working slower, at 1.1. i still have the other PC, built on the MSI K9N4-slif mobo, tested them and both devices work at perfection. i have 2 screenshots to show you:
this, is the device manager (sorry, in spanish but you understand that's about the nVIDIA EHCI USB 2.0 controller. the 2nd one seems to be more sensitive (works worth) then the first one. when the tvcapture begin work, then fails, i'm trying to update this controller, does it ok but then the devicemanager-window freeze. i must stroke the "enter" key to "accept" / finish the update. then, fails again:
the other one is from everest corporate edition:
both drivers marked with purple colour!
i think i should update this Win XP drivers, but how? the usbport.inf file (C:\Windows\inf) don't change anything. i don't want to switch xp to vista, i'm happy whit it.
i'm thinking also on another possibility: could be an energy failure? some usb devices, like the big usb flash dives. 250-320gb, fail because the 5v/usb are receiving it's not enough. could be, but that means this mobo has no solution and i'll loose my money.
thank you very much and i'll stay alert of your suggestions. by

USB/eSata express card not working on stock kernel

Hello everyone,
I have a weird problem and I don't seem to find any solution by myself. Let me give you some background info on what I plan to do.
I purchased an express card to eSata/USB 3.0 adapter and want to make it work on my laptops. Precisely, it is this card: http://www.amazon.de/Notebook-Express-C … B007F8TXZ8
1: Lenovo X200s (1,6GHz) running Ubuntu 14.04 amd64
2: Lenovo X200s (1,6GHz) running Debian 7 amd64
3: Lenovo X200T (1,6GHz) running ArchLinux amd64
The card does work fine only on the Ubuntu machine. I would like to make it run on the two other ones as well. I thought I might get help here getting it to work on machine 3 and then transfer the results to machine 2. What really matters to me is eSata, btw, I do not even have a USB 3.0 device to test with.
First of all, here's what happens when I plug the card into machine 1:

Apart from the supposedly found block device (can't judge) I am not sure if there is anything that is really eSata specific and not USB 3.0 related.
So far what I think I can tell from the output is that the modules
pciehp pci pcieport
seem to be dealing with the express card as such whereas
xhci_hcd
takes care of USB 3.0. I cannot see any clear reference to the eSata connector, which might not be surprising if the bus is just passed through (again: not sure).

Sticking to my suspicion that this might just be a USB related issue and eSata might still work due to some sort of passthrough, I attached the very eSata drive that I could mount on Ubuntu. It did not work.
I then researched and found this blog post: http://okomestudio.net/biboroku/?p=1360
So I downloaded the pkgbuild for the arch linux core kernel and checked the config. It matched the recommendations.
Another hint I found was to unload acpiphp and force-reload it. However, this tip does not seem to apply to the arch kernel:
[user@3-arch:~$ sudo rmmod acpiphp
rmmod: ERROR: Module acpiphp is builtin.
Anyone any idea on how to make the card work?
Thank you!

For anyone else seeking help on that: Card slot was deactivated in 2/3 Bioses.

Mac Pro doesn't recognize USB 3.0 PCI express card

Mac Pro doesn't recognize USB 3.0 PCI express card. Does it need specific drivers?

I did a little searching for that card. The more I looked at it the more I felt that, yes, it needs a driver, and no, one doesn't exist for the Mac. So it looks like that is a card only supported for PC's. But to be sure, if I were in your place at this point, I would contact MSI directly.

[GX620] MSI GX620 Overheating Problem

Hello,
I have a MSI GX620 laptop and it overheats all the time when playing games (World of Warcraft)
When playing the laptop just randomly shuts down after playing for a while.
I am using a USB cooler to get rid of it but it doesn't seem to help in any way.
Can someone please help me to fix this overheating problem since it is very annoying and I just can't get rid of it.
It's been good for a week and now it just happens to shut down very often.
Thanks in Advance,
Sam

Please note that Arctic Silver is slightly conductive. If you're going to use this, be VERY sure not to spill any or that you don't use too much.
If it does spill and gets in contact with the small pins around the core you might create a short circuit.
I recommend the following best tested thermal pastes:
-Prolimatech thermal compound
-Tuniq TX-3
-Arctic silver 5 (slightly conductive)
-Arctic silver ceramique
-Enermax (Dow Corning TC-5121)
-Thermaltake thermal compound

Spectrum Expert - USB or Express Card

The Spectrum Expert is a great tool but the problem is to find a notebook with a PC-Card / PCMCIA slot.
I know that there are adapters available for EC to PC-Card but I think this is not a solution for customers.
I didn't find any information on the Cisco website about an alternative.
Question: When will be a Spectrum Expert Card available with USB or EC connector?

Hi Irina and Scott,
I know the AP SE-Connect feature but we need a portable solution.
Cisco should think about a USB or Express Card solution.
The APs are working with the Spectrum Expert and it will be hard to explain to a customer that he should use a 3rd party solution to get a mobile solution.
Thanks and best regards,
Carsten

MSI GX620 Tv-tuner

Hi!
Now I bought MSI GX620-063 notebook.I tried to install the tv-tuner,but I couldn't do it.I found the Tv-tuner antenna interface in the notebook...I read the instructions,this is optional....Does any Tv-tuner belong to the notebook or not?
Thanks for the help in advance ...

You need to ask your reseller, was the TV tuner listed in their specs?

USB to Express Card adapter/Express Card to Firewire

Macbook Air October 2010.
Comes with two USB 2.0 ports
Can I do the following?
- Connect USB to Express Card adapter
- Connect the Express Card port to a Firewire adapter
- Connect MiniDV camcorder to Firewire port

Also... as they went through the trouble to specifically indicate the compatible cards, I would imagine there are known incompatibilities with other card types. None of the cards they list would have difficulty over USB. Each of these cards already have similar counterparts that are available to connect directly to USB (vs. using an express card). This would seem most useful for people that may already have express cards that they use in other notebooks so they could use them in a machine without an express card slot... otherwise I would imagine people would just get the USB versions of these devices. USB hubs can obviously connect directly to a USB port, memory card readers are also available for connecting directly to a USB port. RS232 is pretty dated and USB can easily handle RS 232 throughput. I'm not exactly sure what a printer card is... but printers generally connect via USB (or parallel in older machines)... again... very easy for USB to handle. In order for it to work with firewire, they would have to have a hardware translator built into it. I'm sure they would list firewire if it was an option.

Firewire Solution? USB To Express Card Adapter Cable + Firewire Expresscard

Has anyone tried this as a possible solution for getting firewire on their macbook 13.3 unibody? In theory it would seem that you could use this USB To Express Card Adapter Cable and plug in a firewire expesscard. Anyone tried it?

Does any company make a Express Card 34 that can be used in the 17 for USB 3.0

I want to use an external seagate external USB 3.0.
Is anyone making one for the Express34 PC Card and if so do you get the extra speed for read and write.

Theoretical and acual speeds for all types data connections can differ due to several variables. I cannot tell you if my eSata connection has ever achieved the theoretical maximum speed because I have never measured it. However I have compared transfer times against Firewire with large files and it is noticeably faster (at least by 50%+). Therefore I highly recommend having it if you need to transfer large files from one HDD to another.
If you have a recent MBP, you already have a Thunderbolt connection. I do not believe that there will be a Thunderbolt Express Card for older MBPs because they are not configured to accept that technology.
Ciao.
