USB SD Card Reader Issue

[techsavvy01]

I have a Kingston MobileLite G4. I have encountered a problem with the front usb port on my case or motherboard not sure. I have to plug in the mobilelite g4 a couple times to get the computer to recognize it then it gives me a message "This Device can perform faster" USB Mass storage. Which is strange because I am 100% sure I'm plugging into usb 3.0 port and the mobilelite g4 is usb 3.0 device. The problem only happens in front usb ports of the case. When I plug the mobilelite g4 in rear usb 3.0 ports I don't get Device can perform faster message. I never had a problem before with the usb 3.0 port until now recently. I tested speeds benchmark crystal disk the speed results are slower now. I tried using usb 3.0 extension cable and it still would not work. Seems nothing can give the mobileite G4 enough power. I tried updating to latest usb 3.0 drivers still no luck

Front USB ports are notoriously under-powered....use the rear ports...

Also, I deleted your signature - it used far too much real estate. Anyway, you already listed your specs in the appropriate place.

I bought this extension cable for rear usb 3.0 ports of my computer and this cable still could not give enough power for kingston mobilite g4

Try a generic reset.

Unplug everything from the PC desktop. EVERYTHING. Press and hold the power button for one minute, release and then plug in ONLY what's needed.
