So I have a motherboard that does not have a 19 pin usb 3.0 connector on it. It has usb 3.0 ports though. It was one of the first models with usb 3.0 so it lacks the front panel pinouts.
Anyhow. I got a card reader with a usb 3.0 interface. Obviously I need a 19 pin connection. No problem really since a usb 3.0 card would give me one.
But I hit a snag. I want a usb 3.0 card that has both a 19 pin connection internal and another usb 3.0 port internal.
I want to take my current front usb 3.0 port using a pass-through and move that internal with a card while also connecting the new card reader to the 19 pin connection on the card.
Can this even be done? I was not able to find a card with both of those options. It had either an extra internal port OR the 19 pin but not both together.
Does anyone know if there are any cards like this out?
