Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Syba SD-VIA-5U 5-port (4+1) USB 2.0 PCI Card, VIA Chip

Customer Review: What +1 means
Summary: 5 Stars

I was hoping +1 meant I could plug my front-USB ports into this instead of the motherboard and get a speed upgrade. But the internal +1 USB is a standard USB external connector, just not accessible from the outside. This would be useful to someone who wanted a USB device inside his computer for whatever reason.

On to the regular review. I bought this card because my built-in USB controller was not playing nice with my new USB KVM switch under Windows (under Linux there was no problem but this is my gaming system so I need Windows). So far I have used the card for keyboard and mouse connections, no high-speed stuff.

Installation was straightforward. The old BIOS did not recognize the new card as PnP, so I had to plug in another KB somewhere else for the computer to boot. Windows recognized it right away.

The bottom line is it solved my problem, so $8 well spent.
