I have an Acer Aspire 5520 notebook.
I wonder is it possible to use an expresscard 34/54 to use my usb 3.0 pen drive in high speeds?
In the manual usb 2.0 is mentioned , however there wasn't usb 3.0 that time.
If I buy a usb 3.0 expresscard , would I be able to use a usb 3.0 pen drive in usb 3.0 mode in my Acer Aspire 5520 notebook ?
If I will get the same usb 2.0 speed, it is meaningless then...
Please advise,
Thank,
Burak
FAQ & Answers
We have not tested USB 3.0 device speeds through the express card slot, so we can not guarantee compatibility. I do not think you would be able to get USB 3.0 speeds that you are wanting.
