Works Fast and perfectly well! – Dual USB 3.0 Ports 34mm Express Card Adapter for Laptop/Notebook - Black (Max 5.0 Gbps) Reviews

Pros:
Very light, fast and has no bezel! When you put it in the Express slot it blends in with the notebook and is almost invisible! Speed tested + 120MB/s read and +80MB/s right speeds!
Cons:
A bit pricy if you think about the internal components needed to make it work. When its inserted in the Express slot the grip is not the best. If you pull the USB cable, sometimes the card will come out as well!
Other:
Good solution if you have a notebook that supports 3.0 but does not have the USB slot. Driver not always recognized but very easy to download! It uses the RENESAS controller! Just search on Google and voilá!
Bottomline:
Good product. Speed is great! Beeing discrete, with no outer bezel is another good point. Remember to hold the card when pulling your USB cable, otherwise it will most likely come out.
