I have purchased two of these now, one which plugs directly into a Z87 board, and one which plugs into an Inateck USB 3 PCI-Express adapter, and both work perfectly so far. USB 3 speeds, and nothing shorting out or lighting on fire. I even spray-painted one of them silver to match the computer case.I haven't plugged/unplugged many times, but the fit between a USB plug and the jack on this device is nice and firm, but not too tight. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Make sure you have a front panel opening to put this in *by D***C on February 13, 2023* Do I like these? I have purchased 15 over the last 4 years and none have had a failure. Make sure you also purchase a 3-1/2" to 5-1/4" adapter if you don't have an open "floppy drive" slot to put this in. The cord length is excellent and has reached USB headers on every motherboard I have installed them on. Don't have a USB3 header on your board? Then get a short little adapter that converts the USB3 plug on this device to a USB2 plug for your board. The USB slots on this device work just as well with USB2. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pretty good product at a good price to update using an old case. *by C***R on December 6, 2020* I put new components in a old case that pre-dated USB 3, so I bought this to be the front panel. Works fine and the mechanics of the pugs seem good. I would recommend this as having the most bang for the buck if you just want two USB 3 ports. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/12218633-tiu-3000-3-5-inch-front-panel-usb-hub-2](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/12218633-tiu-3000-3-5-inch-front-panel-usb-hub-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-01*
