Thats why you need this:

I bought it along with the dock box. I did have a USB3 card installed but it does not play well with vbox and a win 7 guest. I also didnt like not being able to run smart tests.

I have one, sitting on the shelf because my PCIe slot is plugged with a USB 3.0 adapter that's required for my data recovery equipment and also supplies my USB 3.0 hub. I have an eSATA PCI adapter I use for my eSATA docks plus miscellaneous internal drives. I really need a more up-to-date PC, like the Dell Optiplex 7020 I set up for one of my customers.

At my FTJ we have thousands of Optiplex 7010's, they work great for us.
