Hi guys i wanted to upgrade to usb 3.0 So please suggest some good reliable and low cost cards. Need more ports as i am already running out of usb 2.0 as i heard that usb 3.0 is backward compatible.

Spec you can see my signature.

I finally gone to VIA VL 800 based 4 port card from US. Hope to see the reall speed once i receive my 3tb segate HDD USB 3.0
