Title: Needs power supply...that nobody carries
Review: This card is fine for what it is, but it is basically useless for many high-speed applications. If you want USB 2.0, it's probably to feed a thumb disk or a hard drive or a video adaptor...all of which will need the USB port to feed power.Which this card does not. Unless you plug in the "optional" power supply. Which is not available off the shelf in most stores. Sure, I was able to fashion one myself, but why should I have to? This 95-cent omission on Adaptec's side is a $15 problem on top of the purchase price.
Is the review positive or negative?
