Not sure if this belongs here, but I recently bought an ExpressCard/34 with 2 USB 3.0 ports on it. It uses a NEC UPD720202 chip, which I've heard can be unreliable even with the generic XHCI kext, but I have read reports of my particular card working on older versions of MacOS. However, with 10.14.6 I am unable to get it working. The card itself appears under PCI in system report, and the USB3 controller even appears under USB, along with any devices I have connected. Despite everything being listed correctly however, the devices themselves do not work. I am currently using GenericUSBXHCI.kext and USB-Inject-All.kext but I'm having no luck.

This is the ExpressCard in question: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/264356833725

I will post pictures below of what appears in System Information.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
 
Here are the screencaps

The 2 devices listed connected to the USB 3.0 controller are a 16GB SanDisk USB drive and a 2.5" external hard drive bay which has a hard drive connected. I have tried using only one device at a time which makes no difference. I cannot even mount the volumes manually as the devices don't show up anywhere besides here

I have the same. But have issues:

Every time I attach a device on the same ExpressCard than you, appears the Massage USB Accessories Disabled.

In Console appears a conflict with the first Bus USB2 that a affect BlueTooth card
