Hey, i'm kinda new here so i dunno which topic this shud go into... it duznt really fit into peripherals/CE or mainstream hardware
Is there an official name for the metal brackets that fit into the expansion slots at the back that give you more usb and firewire ports?
Not like a PCI card, but an expansion one to plug into free motherboard headers?
Anyone know where to buy them?
EDIT:
Just to clear confusion up, my mobo didn't come with any of these brackets. Its a gigabyte p965-dq6 - yeah, flagship board - had 4 sata cables, 2 esata cables, 4 esata bracktes but no usb/firewire!!!
I'd prefer not to use a hub as my case front panel already has 2 usb and a firewire, and i have several 7 port hubs lying around atm.
