Works well. Tough cables.
I got one to place some flash sticks inside a server case. Note that this adapter has quite thick and tough cables, so it can easily damage a connector at your motherboard if bent too much. I strongly recommend to tie the cables to the case in such way that they do not bend much.

Works as described
When I built my personal system, the standard for USB3.0 headers was not yet defined. The case manufacturer (Antec) put the USB3.0 front case port as just a USB3 extension cable that runs out the back of the case to the motherboard. The case is an Antec Lanboy Air (Yellow) With this adapter I was able to plug the front panel extension into the header and tie it in the case nicely, freeing a back port and making the setup cleaner.

Worked Great
Worked great no problems and no driver issues with WIndows 10 - it just immediately recognized it. Used on an Acer Desktop motherboard (which is pretty basic). Connected this to the M/B USB 3.0 header and then connected a USB 3.0 to SATA cable to add another SATA port to the motherboard on the Acer. Everything worked faultlessly.

Not Impressed
I bought one of these for my gaming motherboard as I run an open air build & every time the cord is moved or anything touches them at all it disconnects the devices. I get better luck with the USB 2.0 adapters I bought which I had ordered the same time as this one. The fit is snug so its not my fitting or the slot, its the cable. But for the price paid it would not have been worth it to send it back or bother with it. I just wont by another one. I will jack one from an older system I fond on the side of the road or something because they always work well.

Too bad it wasn't compatible with my HP computer
It looks sturdy and the was the two USB-A female connectors are separate is a nice plus, I just couldn't get it to work on my HP Z240 Tower Workstation. HP like other companies like to "customize" parts so that you have to buy replacements from them. Too bad, I really wanted this adapter to work, I had great plans for this.

Working perfectly
Exactly what I needed as my Corsair 650D has front panel USB 3 ports with external connectors since this case came out before the motherboard headers were standard. This works perfectly for my needs and speeds are great.

Indeed, it can damage your 3.0 header
I had seen the earlier review that this could damage your 3.0 header, and mindful of that, I tried to be very careful inserting it and then removing it. Despite all this, the connections are tight enough that it still damaged one of the pins (pushing it inward and then distorting it as it came out) when I removed it from the motherboard. An 800-dollar z690 Formula motherboard, the most expensive I've ever purchased. Geez! The pin is still there and can be re-aligned... mostly... though it still seems shorter than its peers for the experience. The USB connection itself seems to work... though I didn't help with my Corsair LCD screen kit (itself a finnicky product that works easily enough except for the actual screen control in iCUE). Other USB devices within the case would probably work. But that's an assumption, as the other features were working running off this, just not the screen control (plugging into 2.0 headers also had this problem). TL/DR It seems to mostly work, but be careful inserting it and especially removing it!! Two stars for working. But only two, since it can and did damage mobo headers, mine and others too, given reviews.

Marche parfaitement
Ne consomme pas trop , on a la surprise d'avoir 4 USB 3 , avec les deux raccordables par cable ; marche parfaitement , après installation du pilote avec le CD fourni ; Je recommande sans hésitation , car cette carte n'a pas besoin d'une alimentation supplémentaire

Buono
Fa perfettamente il lavoro per cui è stato concepito. Utilizzando un attacco grande usb 3.0 permette di avere due uscite con il comune attacco blu 3.0

Cable short.
The cable is too short to place external.
