Topic: ASUS P6X58D Premium & USB 3.0 Issue Posted: 17 Jan 2012 at 10:35am |
Hi folks,
I have a DS built HAF 922 with a ASUS P6X58D Premium Mobo. A couple of days ago I purchased a Samsung 5400rpm external 1 TB OWC external drive which is bus powered and USB 2.0/3.0 compatable.
The drive works fine after formatting to NFTS on the HAF case USB 2.0 plug.
It will not run when I plug it into either of the 2 available 3.0 USB at the rear of the case. I'm wondering if this is a driver issue, and what I would need to do for the fix. Performing a mirror copy of my 450G of data on the c drive takes about 10 hours with USB 2.0.
The 3.0 USB plugs on the case work and have power becasue I can use them for keyboard, mouse, etc.
I'm running windows 7
Thanks,
Becks

You have a 5400rpm hdd, that is very slow, even on usb 3 it would take a long time to do things.
as to why its not recognized I'm not sure, it maybe drivers for the external. |

Hi Becks... Not sure about your mobo, but you might try going to BIOS , advanced screen and see if the NEC USB 3.0 controller is Enabled. When I looked it up it appears, not sure, that the rear USB 3.0 ports are NEC controller.
Check your mobo manual for procedures. Good Luck.
