ASUS USB 3.1 PCI card in the Mac Pro 4.1/5.1

Hello

As the proud owner of a Mac ro 4.1 (updated to 5.1 and 2 X of Hexa-Core Xeon X 5670 CPU) I "suffer" a restriction.

And it is now old and really slow USB 2.0.

I would like to add a PCI USB 3.1 and I spotted the ASUS USB 3.1 PCI card.

Of course, this card is given only as compatible with Windows...

But I've seen a few reports of people claiming to have inserted this card in their Mac and have used successfully with several devices.

It seems that these reports are under "Yosemite".

I was wondering if they are always good with El Capitan...

I put the card in the Mac.

It seems to be recognized by the Mac Pro.

In fact looking at the system information, under "PCI" give "Expansion USB card".

BUT:

-No USB key I have insert mounts;

-No USB stick plug mounts;

-my mouse lights

-the keyboard does not work...

So I'm wondering if:

-El Capitan has got rid of the first USB support 3.1 to Yosemite?

- Or if my card can be default somehow?

-If this behavior can be caused by updates, I made (Mac 4.1-5.1 online) + 8-Core CPU-online 12 Core CPU?

If anyone would be able to help me, I would be eternally grateful :-)

If so, the card can be sent to the seller...

Kind regards.

Hello there Penguiner.

Looks like you bought the ASUS USB 3.1 PCI card and questions about its compatibility with your Mac Pro. The following Knowledge Base article speaks to the maps provided by Apple which have been tested and work with the Mac Pro:

On the compatibility between Mac Pro-carte models graphics

Since the ASUS card is not listed, the reference of the article could be a good recommendation to follow:

This article applies only to video cards that originally shipped with a specified Mac Pro or upgrade kit have been offered by Apple. Similar maps that are not provided by Apple may have compatibility issues and you have to work with this card provider to confirm compatibility.

Thank you for reaching out to the communities of Apple Support.

Kind regards.

    Hello

    Replying to myself: the card is functional.

    And the material is not at fault.

    How will I know?

    Simple: my Mac can dualboot on Mac or Linux Debian.

    So I just started in Debian on the same Mac Pro.

    Guess what? Without having to install any additional software, the card USB 3.1 is perfectly recognized under Linux.

    To remain decent, I will remain silent and will not say what I think Apple tries to limit the use of their devices without the need of technique to do so.

    I will now try to start to Yosemite to see if it allows me to use the card.

    Kind regards.

  • Pavilion P6520F: p6520f driver usb 3.0 pci card

    To make a long story short, with assistance from HP Support Forum's, I've recently restored to my Pavilion P6520F leave an 'upgrade' forced Windows 10, back to Windows 7.  Unfortunately, when I accidentally upgraded to Win 10, my card usb 3.0 pci card decided to die in the transition (not compatible with Win 10).  I replaced the card with a PCI-E DEGOL Express USB 3.0 Card 4 Ports and power connector 4-pin 5V for desktop computers [ASIN: B01FUE7IS2].  The map loaded and worked like a champ... Until I started Windows 7.  Now Windows 7 can not find a driver for it, and provided driver disk will not load a driver for Windows 7.  I contacted the seller, and they assured me that the card must be compatible Windows 7.  Is there a generic driver online of these cards USB 3.0 can I load to bring back my new card?  Unfortunately, I threw the old card, if I can't relive the Degol map, I'll have to buy a new card.

    All advice appreciated!

    Hello

    USB for Windows 7 drivers are the supplies made by the manufacturer of the card.

    You must debug the problem if the DEGOL W7 driver does not load. Generally, you will see an error code in Device Manager for your USB card. This could give you some advice.

    HP is not post drivers for third party material.

  • PCI cards with USB 3.0 or eSATA for a Mac Pro 2006 (1,1)

    Hello, Apple people!

    I got my hands on a Mac Pro 2006 earlier from a friend. I used it as a BESTIAL Server (seriously, this thing is not so much as breaking a sweat even when I throw it the more difficult task.) I love this machine) since I got it, and I think I want to do the updates. My plan so far is to get multiple mounting OWC to pick up the second drive Bay currently vacant DVD and install two 120 GB Samsung 850 EVO drives in RAID 0, while using the real HARD disk bays for a RAID 10 array (nested RAID: two RAID 1 arrays brought together in a RAID 0 array) of four 2 TB red WD drives and use two 250 GB hard drives currently in the machine in an external case in a matrix RAID 1 for backup. I'm pretty happy on this issue.

    My question concerns what interface to use for external drives of 250 GB. I can use:

    • USB 2.0 currently on the machine
    • FireWire 800 currently on the machine
    • a PCIe USB 3.0 card
    • a PCIe card with eSATA

    That we will get the faster speeds? I know that, theoretically, eSATA would get faster speeds (6 Gbps eSATA vs 5 Gbit/s USB 3.0 vs 800 Mbps, Firewire 800 vs 480 Mbps USB 2.0), however I know also (maybe?) that the Mac Pro I have only has grooves in v PCIe 1.1, with a (supposed) 250 MB/s maximum data transfer rate. would this bottleneck a PCIe USB 3.0 or eSATA card not worth?

    Note: don't worry all "Mac compatibility" with PCIe cards (or the table RAID scheme I mentioned). I am running Ubuntu Server (64 bit) on the machine, and given that the Linux kernel supports much more conductive than Mac OS X, I probably don't need to look at all the other drivers. This issue is specific to the hardware capabilities of the Mac Pro.

    Probably the most simple installation, you can do is to install the eSATA extender cable adapter.

    I installed a Western Digital SuperSpeed USB 3.0 PCI Express (PCIe) card. Then I discovered that my diet was already within its nominal capacity output when the computer was shipped. Now, whenever I have a USB device that is connected to the computer, it didn't matter if it is a USB 2.0 or 3.0, the chart shows a decline in the quality whenever I would like to start or restart the computer. If I start the computer without any device USB 95% of the time it would start the graphics in the way it was supposed to be. With the clarity of high definition. I know that I must remove the PCIe card, but my questions are:

    1. If I just uninstall the drivers and let the PCIe card in place if it will still support power?

    2 should I replace the power supply, after you fix this problem?

    3. is there a way to test the power subsequently to ensure that it is correct?

    4. If the withdrawal of the PCIe card is the best method. What is the procedure to remove? Out the PCIe card and uninstall the drivers through the Device Manager? If so, in what order? Card PCIe controller driver, driver finally hub?

    5 leaving the drivers installed and just released the PCIe card be a better idea? If ain't broke don't fix it...

    6. If I let the drivers installed, but get out the PCIe card drivers would say the power supply to power again?

    7. If I take the PCIe card that you call the part that I'd buy that connects to the hole in the back of the tower and what size would I get?

    Thanks for your help! Even if you can only answer some of my questions, feel free to jump in.

    Replacement of the power supply is a common practice. It's a question that is asked constantly. If your power supply is at the maximum, then replace it. It is not all that difficult to accomplish. Even a slight upgrade with a 85% effiecient PSU is a plus.

    Graphics card Quadro 4000, installed in the Mac Pro, but CS5.5.2 will not enable playback of mercury. I ' v looked but can't find any information. Install the cuda driver 4 - 2.2.10 said if Nvidia running OS 10.7.4 driver install is not necessary. In CS5.5.2, the parameters of the project, general, video playback and rendering, the only option is only the MPE software and it is grayed out. I tried to restart the computer.

    as a side note when I open PP I get an error - video filter missing AE > ADBE SubspaceStablizer missing - I don't know what this means, but do not think that it has nothing to do with the issue of mercury reading.

    I also downloaded driver Nvidia - Quadro ODE graphics driver. Under Nvidia drivers downloads, it gives several options for the 4000 Quardo for Mac, but the only one that will download is the graphics driver ODE.

    IM new to this so I really appreciate your help.

    Thanks - John

    the last two posts fixed the issue of the mercury playback engine not activated GPU accelerator. I hope this helps someone else. Thanks for all the help I received.

    I have owned my end of 2013 Mac Pro for about 2 years and updated RAM 64 GB. I learned to not install any 3rd party software to clean up/speed up the Mac. They just make things worse. I don't even install any antivirus software. However, I've been seeing a lot of Rainbow wheels lately. So I would ask the same question again and see if anything has changed.

    I say on my Mac Pro.

    1. the SSD has more than 50% unused space.

    2. I use disk utility to check the SSD and it is good. What happened to the authorization checking?

    3. we execute the lately of OS X.

    I am trying to upgrade the graphics card OEM in my Mac Pro 2006 to a Radeon HD 4870 1 GB graphics card.  I have big problems.  The previous owner recommended that my BONES 10.7.5 uninstalling and reinstalling.  I don't know how to do this.  The Apple website was no help with this issue.  The previous owner gave me a lot of procedures I've ever done before, including removing and re-creation of my RAM and using a Kext troubleshooting application.  Any suggestions you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

    a 4870 with 1 GB of VRAM is not a real Mac card (who had only 512 MB of VRAM). Unlikely to show an image until the login screen, if ever. Unless the seller has a 100% guaranteed working procedure to get this working, I recommend you return for a refund - it is not likely to work in your Mac.

    A true 5770 Mac or 5870 is the best approach for a 2006 or 2007 Mac Pro, because they are known to work with everything except movies under copyright, and your Mac is stuck in the 32-bit kernel and pre - 10.7.5 MacOS.
