Buyer Reviews :
I bought this device after buying a Buslink USB2.0 40GB hard drive and experiencing problems when running it through my USB1.1 hub - it was time to either upgrade the hub or make the move to USB2.0. The coin came down on the Adaptec card, mainly because of the speed increase USB2.0 delivers and because it woud give me 2 USB host ports in addition to the single hosr port on my laptop.
The Adaptec card went in ok and installed easy enough - but immediately gave me the same problems I was having with the Buslink drive running through the USB1.1 hub. Not a good start, but it has a happy ending.
I checked the Adaptec web site and downloaded new drivers(V2.2 at the time of writing, V1.1 shipped with the unit). I followed the very clear and simple instructions and a reboot later all was working fine. I've not thrashed the Buslink drive/Adaptec PC Card combination too hard yet, and it's only been going for a day or two, but so far so good.
The Adaptec PC Card/Buslink drive works well and seems faster than the internal drive in my aging laptop (NEC Versa LX, 233MHz, 168 MB, Windows 2000 SP2)
4 stars because of the need to update the driver.
