    Hi All,
    I have a Malibal Satori P170HM.
    I am facing many issues in USB 3.0.

    - Sometimes the drives don't get recognized.
    - If I add two hard disks on both ports, the first one disappears and then again reappears.
    - The transfers speed seems to be fast in the beginning but slows down to 30MB/s over time.

    I have installed driver version: 2.1.19.0
    In firmware version it shows: 4015 which is different from what I read in one of the threads (I have not updated the firware)

    Please let me know if I need to update the firmware.

    Please help

    Regards,
    Amit Anand

    It may sound strange but with USB drivers I always found it best to just let windows find the drivers. I have a usb 3.0 car in my desktop and the drivers that came with it were flaky but when I let windows find them it worked just fine.

    ^ Those are for desktop USB3 controllers. The version 2.0 are the only ones that work on notebooks.
