Description

We delivers reliable, high-performance solutions for PC users worldwide — from memory upgrades to essential accessories and needs. We strive to build trust through innovation, creating technology that not only empowers users today but also contributes to a more sustainable tomorrow. By connecting people, technology, and ideas, we design solutions that make PCs more powerful, flexible, and future-ready — helping everyone move forward with confidence. The PS5 SSD can reach temperatures of up to 71 degrees Celsius. Excessively high temperatures may affect the life of the SSD, so it's best to have a heat sink on hand. This is not common with consumer SSDs, but monitoring the temperature of your SSD can help prolong its life. Sony recommends installing a heatsink to the internal PS5 SSD in order to maintain performance. A heatsink works by cooling down the SSD and transferring the heat away from the device. Upgrade your PC with professional-grade accessibility. This premium 3.5-inch multi-front panel combines a high-speed card reader and a versatile USB hub into one rugged metal unit. It’s the perfect solution for bringing modern connectivity to the front of your desktop, saving you from the daily struggle of reaching behind the case. Simplify your digital life with a single access point. Featuring dual USB-C ports, dual USB-A ports, and dedicated SD/microSD slots, this panel handles everything from smartphones and mice to professional cameras and external drives. Keep your workspace organized while ensuring every device is always within reach. Don’t let slow data transfers kill your momentum. With a blazing-fast 20Gbps Type-C port and instant-access card slots, you can offload raw footage or high-res photo libraries in a fraction of the time. Experience seamless performance that keeps up with the demands of 4K video editing and high-volume data management. Whether you’re a photographer needing instant SD card access or an office worker managing multiple flash drives, this hub adapts to your needs. It streamlines creative processes by accelerating file imports and boosts office efficiency by making peripheral connections instantaneous and effortless. Built with high-quality metal for superior durability and heat dissipation. This panel is universally compatible with modern motherboards via standard A-Key and 19-pin headers.

  • Works great. Quality product. Five-star product all the way
Style: 6 Port
Bought this to add more usb ports to front of pc case. Would have liked it to be 5.25" wide for case bay, but I had to buy an adapter tray for it from Silverstone to fit their SETA D1 case and that solved issue. Adapter is stamped aluminum which is much stronger than the plastic one I bought first which had a real sloppy fit between the Graugear frame and adapter frame. As for use, this is great. usb 3.0 ports work great and nice to have a 20Gbps and 5Gbps usb-c port. I purchased Xiwai 20Gbps USB 3.2x2 adaptor for my empty m.2 header on my ROG X399E-gaming MB. Nice to have the SD/Micro SD card slots. No need for the small card reader anymore. Back to the pc storage box for old things pc. After a couple days of use, the transfer speeds are very good, and I am getting consistent connections with the m.2 slot am3242 based adapter card. Have transferred data between all of the ports and they all work well. As expected, depending on the type of media you have connected to panel will make a difference in transfer speeds. Also turn over the usb`c cable and see if speeds change on your system. Surprised me so just try it. Still very good investment. This is a quality product because the two interface cables are round and shielded so there is no need to worry about noise affecting signal transfers between MB or within the panel when transferring between SD and usb. Flat ribbon cables really are something I do not like to see on usb 3.0 and above. They are susceptible to noise. Wish Graugear included a 3.5" to 5.25" adapter or had one listed for their product on website. If they do have one, I must have missed it. Definitely recommend and would buy again if needed and will recommend to others to get this if they need more usb options. ... show more

  • Great little hub
Style: 6 Port
I needed a few extra higher speed USB ports but also needed some type C ports on the front of my computer. All the type C ports are on the back I/O panel. It was kind of annoying to get to them. And the added bonus the built-in microSD and SD reader. Now I don't have to fumble with USB readers I could just plug it directly into this front panel. Connecting it was a bit of a pain. IDK how I mixed up 5.25 with 3.5in. I had to get an adapter so it could fit in my 5.25in bay, but that was my fault. Aside from that setback, it fit and connected well. Price was okay for the wife range of capabilities. Should have come with a SATA power cable, but didn't. You need to supply a sata power cable yourself. ... show more

  • Great for short burst of speed
Style: 6 Port
PROS: - Transfer speeds are pretty fast. I'm not measuring them with software or data, but it does transfer faster through this device than with other USB Ports on my system. - It fits nicely on my front panel where an optical drive could go. nice extension for plugging things in temporarily. - Looks good with my system CONS: Seems if you transfer data for prolong periods, the drive will start to time out. I needed to backup an 18TB drive to a new 24TB drive. Transfer speeds were fast for a few hours until it would lock up. System says device is at 100% usage, but no data is transferring. I believe its heat related. At those speeds for prolong time, the chips probably get hot and save themself. but they don't recover. I would have to disconnect the drive then reconnect. its been 5 days trying to transfer the data and barely 50% done. I switched to a slower USB and its been transferring steadily but slowly.. OVERALL: I would buy again and recommend to others. I think adding a heat sink to the chips for extended data transfer would be wise. I don't think hours of extreme data transfers was the intended job of this device, so its hard to blame manufacturer. It does transfer really fast for first few hours. ... show more

  • Very happy.
Style: 6 Port
Every few years I build a new PC with the latest and greatest components. This Graugear front panel fit perfectly in my Cooler Master HAF 932 full tower case for my latest build. It’s got the latest USB-A and USB-C connectors, as well as micro SD/TF and a standard SD card slot. Everything seems to work as advertised in testing, and the only thing I noticed is that it appears to have been waking up my PC randomly. The problem went away when I went to the power management tab for this component in Device Manager and unchecked its ability to wake the PC. Oh, when I first connected this device, I wasn’t getting the high speed until I realized I hadn’t connected a SATA power cable. This definitely needs a power cable connection to function properly. Other than that possible SNAFU where it would wake up my PC, I’m happy with this. It’s very compact and does everything it says it will. I hope this helps. ... show more

  • Utterly useless.
Style: 6 Port
I cannot stand the look of most of the front USB panels available on the market. I don't need 35 different obscure card readers built in, I don't need 16 USB ports. This design is as close to perfect as I can find. Unfortunately it's absolute trash. I saw other reviews commenting on the slow transfer speed, I hoped they were mistaken, or maybe received a defective product. No such luck. Mine maxes out at 2 MBps, and it only sees that in intermittent spikes. I tested transfer speed with all four USB ports and the full size SD card reader - I don't have a micro SD handy to test that, but it's irrelevant anyway. All five tests show identical transfer speeds. I even tried transferring from different sources; internal HDD, internal NVMe SSD, and between thumb drives plugged into the two USB-A ports on this adapter. No difference in speed for any situation. All four ports are useless, as is the SD card reader - meaning the entire thing is useless from the ground up. Additionally, if you have a large ATX case, the cables could stand to be a bit longer. Mounting this in my top 5.25 bay, with USB connectors along the bottom of my motherboard, I can only just run the cable directly there, with no extra length available to leave any flexibility for clean routing. Otherwise pretty easy to install, the SATA power adapter seems to fall off a little too easily, but I think that's minor (assuming it's actually making contact, maybe that's why it's sloth mode?) ... show more

  • Best front panel USB hub & card reader I've ever owned bar none
This unit is heads and tails above all the other front panel USB hub & card readers I've owned over the years. First, it's far more solidly built with the front bezel being solid metal so no chance of breaking those awful plastic tabs that most other units come with, being a part of the case itself which is also very sturdy and well-made. Second, perhaps earlier versions of this required you to insert the MicroSD card upside down, but I must have a newer version where they're inserted facing up. Also and more importantly, the faster of the two USB-C ports on the one I got was USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 so it goes up to 20Gbs, not 10Gbs as in the product page description and datasheet. This of course depends on your motherboard's capabilities and what you insert into it. Finally, it's fast. Not quite as fast as my X570S motherboard built-in ports, but just a hair slower. For example using CrystalDiskMark my Samsung 256GB USB-C flash drive tested at 433/118Mbs read/write on the MB's rear USB-C 3.2 Gen 2x2 port, and 399/118 on the Graugear's 5Gbs USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 port and 403/119 on its 20Gbs USB-C 3.2 Gen 2x2 port. That's close enough for me. Installation took longer and was more difficult than I expected, but that was entirely because of the way that my PC is set up with cables, connections and such. But the device itself is very simple and easy to install if you know your way inside a PC. I can't attest to long-term regular use as I only got it a few weeks ago and haven't been using it much, but on build, performance and even looks, it's a winner. A bit more expensive than what I've usually paid for such devices in the past but justified by its much higher quality. ... show more

  • Good construction, quality components, all USB3
Style: 6 Port
This was exactly what I needed. It provides 2 USB-C ports, 2 USB 3 ports, and SD and MicroSD reader, all running a USB 3 speeds. I'm happy to verify that the SD reader is in fact USB 3.0, and with a class-10 card I get 100MB/s read speed. The chip used is a Norelsys NS1081, which claims to support up to 2TB cards and max throughput of 200MB/s. (perhaps only when reading both cards at once?) The upper USB-C is a direct passthrough to the Type-E connector on your motherboard, so you get whatever speed your board is capable of. The other is part of the USB 3 hub, and plugs into the USB 3.0 20-pin motherboard header, so it's sharing that 5Mbit with other things you have plugged in. Construction quality is pretty good, and it looks nice. Do note that the builtin USB 3 hub requires a SATA power connector, and that it needs to be long enough to reach up into the front of the drive bay. ... show more

  • Front panel USB access with most of the inputs and connections that you are likely to need.
Style: 6 Port
The screw hole placement seems to match that of an internal drive holder, not something that will protrude through the front of a computer case. This meant I was only able to insert one screw per side. I also had to replace the cable (which includes the front USB-C port) for the 20 Gbps port with one that ended in a 90-degree Key-A Type-E plug because for some reason, most 20 Gbps PCIe internal connection adapter cards (stupidly) have the socket facing to the side, interfering with other cards and the case and pretty much everything. Otherwise, this device seems to work well. I've attached the results of benchmarks of a Crucial X10 Pro Drive on the 20 Gbps port (which is really just a direct connection to the PCIe adapter) and the 5 Gbps USB-C port which is controlled by the included USB hub that also supports the two USB-A ports and the SD and Micro SD Slots. There is also a benchmark of a Sandisk Extreme Pro U3 microSD XC card. I docked one star for not having enough screw holes in the correct locations. ... show more
