5.25 Bay Media Dashboard

Suits builders adding front I/O; not for laptops

This dashboard is intended for desktop builders who want front-access USB 3.0, USB 2.0 and Esata ports together with card-slot support. It requires an internal 5.25 bay and a 4-pin power header, so it cannot be used in laptops or small-form-factor cases without such a bay.

Multi card reader up to 64G

The integrated reader accepts M2, TF, SD, MMC, MS and CF media with a stated capacity ceiling of 64G. This limit decides whether the panel can handle the cards a user relies on.
