Posted April 22, 2016 It seems I have underestimated the number of internal USB channels I need for my new rig. I need four more channels (two more 9-pin headers), and there seems to be a plethora of USB 3.0 expansion cards, but where are the 2.0 cards? If anyone has any leads, please reply. If you're wondering why I have so many USB needs, I have two Corsair Link devices, five USB ports on the front panel, a 3.5" USB/card reader in a front tray (2 USB channels), and a bluetooth card that uses a USB interface. That puts me at 8/4 channels... Right now, it seems my only choice is to get a USB 3.0 header card and modify my peripherals' cables to connect to it.
