  2. USB3 Hub works on usb2 port, but not on usb3 port

    USB3 Hub with 1x usb3 & 2x usb2, works on usb2 port, but not on usb3 port

    On both Win 7 & 10 the same.

    I checked the working usb2 driver - iusb3hub.sys

    I have a pure usb3 hub that works, with the same iusb3hub.sys driver.

    when trying to update/correct the driver for the "unknown device" on the usb3 port, it only accepts ".inf" files.

    There are several other devices that don't work on the usb3 port.

    Takers?

    PC case front panel recognizes USB3 key or drive, but not USB2

    USB3 device disconnecting when transferring files.

    Hello!

    I've recently built a new PC and everything is working fine, well almost everything. There are 4 USB ports on the case front panel. Two of them are USB2 and the other two are USB3. My problem lies with the
    USB3 ports. Neither of them work when using a USB3 capable stick. File transfers fail within seconds, then you hear the usb stick disconnecting and reconnecting.

    I can use a USB2 stick in both of the troublesome ports and files copy perfectly fine (at 20mb/s). The USB3 sticks work perfectly fine on on the USB2 ports and even the USB3 port directly on the motherboard
    (at ~57mb/s). The problem occurs only on the front panel USB3 ports when copying at USB3 speeds (~57mb/s).

    So far I have tried:

    • Updating BIOS
    • Updating USB drivers
    • Updating Windows 10 to latest version
    • Disabling power saving for USB devices in device manager
    • Remove and reconnect USB3 cable on motherboard
    • Verify if the issue is not the HDD that I am copying from
    The motherboard and case in question are:

    • Gigabyte Z370 HD3P
    • NZXT Source 340 Elite
    I am looking for any help or tips regarding this issue as my google skills are failing me.
