[FS] - EU - Sonnet USB3-Pro-4PM-E 4x Controller PCIe USB Adapter


Recommended Posts

It's this one:

Allegro Pro USB 3.0 PCIe 4-Port Computer Card - Sonnet (sonnettech.com)

 

This is the elusive 4x Type A USB 3.0 port card with discrete controllers per port, meaning you can assign each port to a different VM, assuming your MB IOMMU breaks them out correctly.. 

 

I discovered that unfortunately it just didn't want to work reliably with my bifurcated PCIe ports. (Taichi X399 wouldn't always post). It works great when used in a standard PCIe port, but unfortunately did not meet my very specific needs. Hence sale.

 

Bare card only. No packaging, though will be well wrapped for postage.

 

Looking for $150 / €135 or close offer + postage at cost. Payment by Paypal (friends) or Revolut.

 

I'm located in EU, (Ireland). I can post worldwide, but be aware you may incur import fees and charges. YMMV.

 

I'll be listing on fleabay in a few days but wanted to give unRAIDers first shout as these are hard to find and if you need it, you need it.

Hi, sorry for the late reply. I’m not sure why I didn’t receive a thread update notification.

 

Yes, I still have the card, and managed to get it working reliably in my system by shuffling around some cards / slots. 

 

However, it really is a nice to have as I’ve lots of other USB controllers I’m not using. Would consider sale.
