Posted filed under Consumer Electronics.

The PCIe x1 slot has only one PCIe lane. Although there is only one PCIe lane, the PCIe x1 slot can be used for a variety of low-power PCIe peripheral cards. The PCIe x1 slot is the smallest PCI Express slot and has the lowest throughput compared to larger PCIe slots such as the PCIe x16 slot. However, PCIe x1 cards can be installed into all PCIe expansion slots, including x4, x8, and x16 PCIe slots. Often people underestimate their role in PCIe x1 slots. This article will introduce which peripheral expansion cards connect to PCIe x1 slots.

Introduction to the main features of USB 3.0 expansion card
A USB 3.0 expansion card is a device used to expand the number of USB interfaces on a computer and provide higher transmission speeds. The USB 3.0 interface has a higher transmission speed and larger bandwidth than the USB 2.0 interface and can transmit data faster. Therefore, the USB 3.0 expansion card not only meets the needs of high-speed data transmission but also provides the computer with more USB interface to facilitate users to connect various external devices.
