I have this belkin usb 2.0 card. it has 2 connectors on the inside. wondering if anyone can tell me what they are for the manual for the card don't even talk about them

i'm thinking the one of the right is front panel usb header? the one of the left i though fire wire front panel at first but it seems like there is way to many pins for that.

awesome thanks. ud think they would have put that in the manual 🤣. so the connector on the left is just 2 firewire connections back to back it would seem and the connector on the right is front usb

I have the later rev 3.0 of the same card - chipset is now Ali rather than NEC, and all the internal connectors are socketed rather than pin headers

ya this one has a type A at the back inside. i went for this one because of the front usb header so i can plug the case ports directly in without an adapter. this one was $15 brandnew in the package. i also wanted a card with a blue pcb to match up with the gigabyte board i have. now if i could just find a hercules 9700 or 9800 pro with the blue pcb id be golden but those seem to be next to impossible to find.

Sounds like a nice blue-themed system 😀 - my Hercules 3D Prophet 9800 PRO lives in my dual Tualatin GA-6VTXD (board isn't blue but the cpu sockets are!!!)
