3.5" Internal Card Reader USB 3.2 Gen 1

The EN-Labs EXTERU3CR3 installs into a 3.5" floppy bay and connects to an internal USB 19-pin header. It provides three slots for CompactFlash I/II, Memory Stick variants and SD/SDHC/SDXC/UHS-I/II cards. A 1.64ft cable links the reader to the motherboard header.

Suits desktops with a free 3.5" bay

Photographers and office users who transfer images from CF, MS or SD media will find the all-in-one layout convenient. Builders without a spare 3.5" bay or an available internal USB 19-pin header cannot install this unit. It does not support MMC or SmartMedia formats.

Fits a 3.5" front panel opening

The 1.64ft cable reaches headers on boards used in HP Z240, Z440, Z640 and Z840 workstations. Using the reader frees external USB ports for other peripherals while adding multi-format card access directly at the front of the chassis.

Questions about this item

Do I need a free 19-pin USB header on the motherboard to install this EXTERU3CR3?

Yes, the reader connects through an internal USB 19-pin header; the 1.64ft cable reaches from a 3.5" bay to that header.

Will the CF I/II and SD UHS-I/II slots work if I keep an older USB 3.0 front-panel port on the same header?

The reader runs at USB 3.2 Gen 1 5Gbps; sharing a header with legacy USB 3.0 devices will fall back to the slower link speed.

How can I confirm the reader is operating at 5Gbps after fitting it in a Z240, Z440, Z640 or Z840 bay?

In Device Manager the device should appear as a USB 3.2 Gen 1 controller and transfer rates on a UHS-II card will approach the 5Gbps link ceiling.
