If your USB3 connections are failing, then I suggest you get an add PCIe card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=-1&IsNodeId=1&Description=pcie%20usb3&bop=And&Order=RATING&PageSize=20 You may need to install the drivers as well. Follow the instructions. Make sure your USB3 connection really is the problem. Try a different USB3 cable, and a different USB3 device to see if the problem remains. Upvote 0 Downvote
