    NOT for Apple Products (OK with Windows)

    The Targus Card is very nicely constructed, but be aware that it will NOT Plug 'n' Play on a Mac, and there are no Drivers available for OSX. On a Windows machine, after a little fiddling about with drivers, it behaves impeccably.

  • Most critical review

    Gets too hot, very low transfer speeds, usb port too tight

    This is not worth buying if you have an express card port on your laptop. It gets so hot I thought it was going to catch fire ... and that was just with a USB 3.0 flash drive plugged in. The transfer speeds were very very low , I tried the card in my E6230 and my daughters E6430 and both reported speeds no greater than 4.5mbs ... no where near >18mbs i get as a minimum from this flash drive on my home pc via USB 3.0 (I often much more). Also the USB 3.0 port on the Targus card is so tight the express card often gets pulled from the machine entirely when you're disconnecting or you'll find you're self ejecting the card when you plug a device in. In short I can see why Targus has now discontinued these cards .....complete waste of money.

  • Only one that just works.

    I've repeatedly bought 2-3 of the cheap 2 port ones. They always lock up my lenovo T430. Well responsiveness gone, mouse sticky - the laptop becomes unuseable. This one ? Just works. And it doesn't jam in the slot.

  • I know its cheap,but it still does not fuction as it should.

    Its supposed to be able to use it as an extra USB port .ok it works my mouse only. When I plugged my hard drive in , my computer crashed I tried this twice ,both times my computer crashed.

  • when it works it is fast...but...

    upon insertion it is temperamental...reboot and it will be ok, but that is annoying. Could be my build as it does work after a clean boot. So I use as a fixed item in the laptop but if it pulls out while disconnecting USB device, without proper eject, seems I need to reboot?. When working I see up to 45MB/sec transfer.

  • Works great in Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS

    Plug and play under Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS, Kernel Linux 5.11.0-25-generic. Works whether plugged in before booting, or hot plugging. Can remove and plug back in, still works fine. Ubuntu disk benchmark gives a 2TB Samsung spinning disk read and write speeds well in excess of 100 MB per second. It was a bit of a tight fit at first, as the port had never been used, but it has loosened up as the port gets used. It may be advisable to hold the card in when unplugging devices, but other than that, I'm chuffed to bits with it. Money well spent. Thanks.

  • Resolved my ANT+ dongle disconnection issues

    I wanted to run Zwift on an old laptop, but the ANT+ reciever kept on disconnecting. Once the reciever was plugged in via this card it worked an absolute treat. 60 minute work out and no drop outs!

  • 120 MB/s SUSTAINED on Windows 10

    This product is outstanding. It’s the only USB 3.0 card worth a damn, in my opinion. Just follow the instructions and you’re set. It sits about 99% flush and does what it’s supposed to. Don’t worry about the negative reviews from idiots who don’t know what they’re doing - THIS is the express card you want.

  • Great card

    Bought a few Targus products over the years and they work fine. This usb 3 card is great, plug and play in windows 10 no drivers needed.

  • Cheap and cheerful

    It will run a mouse without plugging in the power cable but for an external hard drive or CD/DVD drive the power cable is needed - so it's not quite as tidy a solution.
