I experience the following annoying problems with USB3.0:
When I plug in a USB 3.0 device, one of my other plugged USB 2.0 devices will disconnect/fail. That was with my old laptop (ASUS N71JQ)... I have a new PC today (Brix GB-BXBT-2807) and I was really looking forward to leaving the problems behind. However, this new PC has similar/same USB 3.0 problems; when I connect a USB 3.0 device to the USB 3.0 port, WiFi usually drops out completely. It is as if the system does not have enough power (?) to run a USB 3.0 device and the WiFi card simultaneously?
It is not just one USB 3.0 device I have tried; I have a USB 3.0 external powered 2TB Seagate hard drive, and a USB 3.0 Flash drive (32BG KingMax). Both give the same problems.
Is USB 3.0 simply not fit for purpose???
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
