I couldn't really test if under ubuntu the adapter was forking at full 3.1. speed.
I tried to replicate the test, but I don't have the old ubuntu installation usb key I used before (I did a format for the Win 10 clean install).
Ubuntu 16.10 doesn't boot ("soft lockup - cpu stuck for 22s" error), ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS behaves as Windows 10 (so the usb 3.1 adapter is not working, USB 3.0 devices are fine).

Unfortunately I can't change hdd power options as the hdd/adapter keep disconnecting every second (it just tries to install, in an endless loop).

I ordered a replacement, I'll update the thread when it arrives.
I tried to find an adapter with the jmicron chipset, but I had no luck.

New hdd adapter arrived, it's a different production batch, different casing.
This one works, thank god.
I suggest to NOT install asmedia usb drivers, as they don't activate UASP (=much lower speeds).

For those interested, here's the results with a 750gb Crucial MX300 SSD

Thanks for the update, that adapter works well, once you get one that actually works.

Given my experience with other ASMedia drivers in the past, my guess seems to have been correct. Or the ASMedia 3.1 driver does not work well with this adapter, or in UASP mode.

No example of the ASMedia driver performance? I'll take your word about the performance.

Your test with "No drivers" is really with the Windows "inbox" driver. Could be titled "No ASMedia driver".

I just had the same problem ... I just bought an Asrock Fatil1ty z270 Gaming K6, specifically as I had a USB 3.1 Type C connection I wanted to utilise.

After installing Windows 10 (v1703 Build 15063.413), I decided to get onto the Asrock website, update my BIOS (Z27GK62.10) and grab the latest (June 2017) drivers from Asrock and proceed to update.

I've only just managed to connect my Drobo 5C via USB 3.1c and it would not detect it. It worked fine up on the rear USB 3.0 ports (using the Drobo supplied cable).

So after reading this post, I decided to uninstall the 'updated' Asmedia USB 3.1 drivers v1.16.38.1 (dated 2016) I got from the Asmedia download page and leave the default Microsoft 1.1 (v10.0.15063.296 27th April 2017) driver installed.

I reconnected the Drobo and presto ... worked straight away on the Microsoft 3.1 System Drivers. Actually this version of Windows 10 fresh on this motherboard is the first time I've seen Windows detect all non-intel devices and correctly configure all drivers without mismatch. Looks like I'll stick with the Microsoft drivers for USB 3.1, not the Asmedia ones for now.

Inateck USB 3.0 mSATA Encolsure


Win 10 64 latest update, MB bios latest, no fastusb, no long cables, no hubs.

Tried power setting options
Tried all front back ports
Change bios options for all USB features.

Returned and replaced item, but it will just not connect in USB3 only USB2.

Issue is constant connect/disconnect half a second apart, or no connection at all...stopping file explorer opening.

No idea, just going to use msata to Pcie instead.
