Re: Where to get additional USB slots?

I believe some if not most front bay devices have a long USB cable (or an
option to use one) that is designed to reach through your system, exit an
empty slot in the back, then plug into a standard rear USB port for those
people who don't have an available USB MB connector.

Would like to add additional USB slots to front of box...have available
5.5"or 3.25" slot...anyone know where I could get such?

Don`t forget you need header pins on your M\board
to plug into !.
-------------------
That's great..Thanks 4 all the advice.
Ref do I have a spare header pins on mobo...not sure yet - have a new one
ordered - its a Asus A8N-E.
If I should go for a multi outlet one as apposed to just USB...eg
including card readers etc...anyone know
will I still need the same connection to the mobo?
Thanks
