I am just preparing to upgrade to 10.8.

Does it have native support for USB 3.0?
My GIGAbyte board has build in USB 3.0.

TIA.

Hi,

I have a very similar screen in my system profiler - i.e. it shows USB 3.0 Super Speed and USB 3.0 High Speed, but it's unable to detect a USB 2.0 device plugged into it. I read on another thread that there is no backwards compatibility so will work with only USB 3.0 devices. Does anyone know how to get them to work with USB 2.0 devices as well?

I am using a Gigabyte GA-Z77-D3H (can't get the DS3H here), so I can't use the Multibeast's USB 3.0 drivers even though I do have the Eltron EJ168 chipset for 2 of my ports.

Thanks in advance.

Regards
CK

I have a similar situation with the USB 3.0 ports on my build, Zotac Z77ITX, as well. Details of my build here.


USB 3.0 devices works in USB 3.0 ports. (Speed not tested)
USB 3.0 devices works in USB 2.0 ports.
USB 2.0 devices works in USB 2.0 ports.


but...


Most USB 2.0 devices don't work in USB 3.0 ports.
Things that don't work are mass storage devices i.e.: my ext HDs and flash drives and my Apple Wired Keyboard.
Things that do work are my DBT-120 USB Bluetooth and Razer Diamondback mouse.


I have both EHCI and XHCI handoff enabled in BIOS. I've tried all combos of this but nothing works.


Any ideas?
 
intel usb3 has native support with osx 10.8 but its only work with usb 3 devices ,, so u can use usb 3 hubs and connect it to intel usb3 port and u will be able to use both usb 3.0/2.0 devices on hubs ;)

I see. Is that also the case with the USB 3.0 on the recent MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, etc?

I have Gigabyte Z77 DS3H. My usb 3.0 only works if I enable the XHCI-Hand off in Bios, otherwise it will hang the whole system when I plug the USB
