Hardware Installation
WARNING!
PCI Express cards, like all computer equipment, can be severely
damaged by static electricity. Be sure that you are properly
grounded before opening your computer case or touching your PCI
Express card. StarTech.com recommends that you wear an anti-
static strap when installing any computer component. If an anti-
static strap is unavailable, discharge yourself of any static electricity
build-up by touching a large grounded metal surface (such as the
computer case) for several seconds. Also be careful to handle the PCI
Express card by its edges and not the gold connectors.
1. Turn your computer o and any peripherals connected to the
computer (i.e. printers, external hard drives, etc.). Unplug the
power cable from the rear of the power supply on the back of the
computer and disconnect all peripheral devices.
2. Remove the cover from the computer case. (See your computer
system documentation for details).
3. Locate an open PCI Express x1 slot and remove the metal cover
plate on the rear of the computer case. (See your computer
system documentation for details).
Note: This card will work in PCI Express slots of additional lanes (i.e.
x4, x8, or x16 slots).
4. Gently insert the card into the open PCI Express slot and fasten
the bracket to the rear of the computer case.
Note: If installing the card into a small form-factor/low-prole
desktop system, replacing the pre-installed standard-prole bracket
with the included low-prole (half-height) installation bracket may
be necessary.
5. It is recommended you connect the optional SATA power using
an available SATA power connector from the computers power
supply.
Note: It is recommended that SATA power is connected to the card
to ensure sucient power is provided to each USB 3.0 port.
6. Place the cover back onto the computer case.
7. Insert the power cable into the socket on the power supply of the
computer, and reconnect all other connectors removed in Step 1.
