Do I have to Connect the usb from inside the case to outside the case on the motherboard?

Sorry I didn't see this sooner. The other answer is correct, It comes with an adapter for the usb headers on the motherboard and converts that to a USB female. Even if you decide to route the cord out the back it is nice to have the adapter for an internal USB connection.

You can do both. It comes with a adapter that plugs into the MB or you can just run it out side if you want.

Not to my knowledge. There was no way to connect your case headers to the card and no USB on the card itself.

I cannot say for sure. The bottom of the box has a keyboard and mouse graphic moulded into to bottom of the case under the input side and that is how I am using it. But I thought USB stood for universal serial bus so it shouldn't matter what is on the input. But would suggest talking to a more knowledgable computer peripherals person.

If you are doing a full build I would suggest using this site http://pcpartpicker.com this will help you with the compatibility. In response to the question concerning frontal usb ports this depends on the case you purchase, I personally have two in the front because of my corsair case. Hopefully this helps

To my knowledge that is handled by your bios and the hdd itself. So as long as your mobo and hdd are smart compatible the enclosure dosnt figure into it.

No. My computer case had exactly the same setup. I connected the one 3.0 connection to this cable and connected the cable to a USB 2.0 header on the motherboard. Both front USB ports work fine.

That depends on the USB reader and how your bios sees the reader and attached drives. Check your bios first.

thats is true IF u dont have USB3 conector on your motherboard... if u have it, then u can use both USB conectors.

By back of motherboard, you mean the rear I/O? This is how you do that &lt;--. There should be a little expansion port cover in the screw bag with holes big enough for cables to fit through. You poke out one of the expansion ports and screw in this cover with the usb 3.0 cable through a hole. You should then have the male cable end protruding from the outside of the case, which is now easily able to loop around into one of the motherboard's 3.0 ports on the rear I/O. Hope that wasn't too confusing.

kevin cox had the right answer. You need a usb 3.0 port on the motherboard itself...

This card does not use any motherboard's USB resourses. So it will provide valid USB3 ports independently of motherboard's resourses, even in case m/b has no any build in USB at all.The only ultimate demand is PCI-x slot to plug the card in

The case may not have USB 3.0, but most of the newer motherboards have 4 USB 3.0 slots.

No because it's plugged into a 2.0 slot on the motherboard. It just makes you able to use it

There is a couple USB cables that need to plug into your motherboard. They are labeled USB. One is for the LED control and the other is for the USB... Actually now looking into my PC I see that there is a larger black cord stamped with USB 3.0 that plugs right below my eatxpwr. I can follow the cord to the top of the tower so I'm sure that it is the one you will need. Your mother board will have to have a USB 3 connector for it to work. Hope this helps. You gonna love this tower!

You don't need to remove the motherboard if you have cut space in the back of the case. That's because there are 4 long screws you have to pass through the MB.

You don't have to place in a PCI slot on your case but it is powered via molex not PCI via motherboard.

USB 3.0 to internal header but an adapter to usb 2.0 internal header is included so you can use that instead if your motherboard doesnt have usb 3
