Asus N PC, runs 10.10 x86_64
The Asus N comes with 4 usb 2.0 ports, each labelled 2.0 on the case.
Attempting to add two usb 3.0 ports to be provided by a generic usb 3.0 pci express card installed in the pci expres slot. The new card says usb 3.0 and has the blue ports.
The card is installed into the laptop unpowered, then the laptop is powered on and boots normally. Nothing happens when a USB 3.0 flash drive is inserted into the usb 3.0 port.
