Can I plug this PCI USB3 into anyone of my PCI slots
Currently I'm only using two of my PCI slots w/ a TV tuner
I would like to use the remaining slots 1. for USB 3. and another 2nd. slot for adding a couple SATA ports.
I attach image of the MOBO intel H57.I see one long black PCI slot which is unused
Two small white PCI slots both are being used w/ a TV tuner and a WIFI adaptor.(woops WIFI adaptor is'nt being used so the second short white PCI slot is unused)
And one long white PCI slot which is unused.note my MOBO is USB 2 so will a USB external HDD actualley transfer ten times faster?
also will I be able to plug another PCI card for additional SATA ports into either the long white or long black unused PCI slots
