USB 3.0 Host Controller Driver for Window 8
Hi,
I have a Dell Inspiron 15R N5110 and i wonder if there is a driver already for the USB 3.0 Host Controller for Windows 8. Because right now, i can't maximize the speed of my USB 3.0 and it just like a USB 2.0 because the transfer rate is just between 30-35MB/s.
Thanks in advance,

Hi Nald,
USB 3.0 Host Controller driver for Windows 8 is not available. You may try to download and install the Wistron USB 3.0 Host Controller Driver available for Windows 7 and see it that helps.
If that doesn't help, then you may try to install the driver in compatibility mode. It might help.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
After doing what you have instructed me to do, still, nothing has change. Slow transfer rate for USB 3.0.:emotion-6:

Hi Nald,
Unfortunately, there isn't much that can be done. Windows 8 has native drivers for USB 3.0. Please ensure that Windows Updates are up-to date.
Are you connecting 3.0 device or 2.0 device?
To me the transfer rate seems normal. Data transfer speed depends on various factors like amount of data being transferred, size of the file etc. This should not be a matter of concern.
