Review: Cool little part - This part is really helpful for FREENAS or other file server setups where you have a usb flash drive as your boot disk. That is the main utility for this product but it also has other utilizations as well. I have one installed on my HT/Gaming PC. It permenantly houses my wireless receiver for my logitech mouse and keyboard. I was a little worried about interference from my case (HAF XB) but it proved to be unfounded. I will say that when I had my wireless headphones connected internally there was some static so I moved it back outside the case. I just purchased a bluetooth receiver and will install that internally and see what happens. If you want to install a USB receiver or drive internally then this is a great product for you. I have an ASUS board and this thing installed just fine. It took a bit of force to shove it onto the header but it connected fine. It also provided ample room for me to install two devices in it without a problem (someone mentioned concern in another product that the "stacked" ports used in this product would interfere with each other, that has not been my experience.
Review: Works as advertised; couple of minor points - As I was setting up an unRAID server (which runs off a USB flash drive), I wanted a solution that would allow me to mount the flash drive internally to prevent someone from accidentally removing the flash drive. I found other products but those all had long finicky cables (and there are plenty of those in my server already). This is much more compact and works without any issues so far. A couple of minor points: (1) since the USB ports are on one side of the PCB, I suggest inserting the USB device/cable before inserting the entire adapter into the motherboard. Otherwise, the stress you place on the adapter while inserting the USB device/cable may make the adapter flex around the connection between the PCB and the motherboard connector. (2) the little "wings" of the PCB on the sides of the adapter *might* make plugging in nearby motherboard connections more difficult, although this would vary based on motherboard. I had no problems with my motherboard (Asus B450-F Gaming), but I realize this could be an issue for others. As with many StarTech products, I don't imagine this is necessary for most people. But for those times when you need a solution to a niche problem, it is usually StarTech that has exactly what I need.

*by S***0 on March 3, 2015*

This is an excellent little device that has worked for me on various motherboards. Old ones, new UEFI baords, etc. This is perfect for those looking to install a PFSENSE, FREENAS or other type system that requires a flash type device internally mounted to prevent it from accidentally being pulled or knocked out. It is not flexible, bendy or wimpy. It is solid and seems like it will last a long time as long as you do not continuously mess with it. I did notice that some motherboards had a very tight fit while others allowed it to slide right in or be removed more easily. In other words, your mileage may vary depending on your mobo! Also, very excellent option if you just want hidden internal storage for any number of reasons. I only gave it 4 stars for one reason - it is open and exposed. I would definitely like to see this product have some sort of plastic shell to guard from contact shorting. Otherwise it is a fine piece of kit. I would also like to see this be sold in packs of 2 or even 5.
