The LaCie driver does indeed only work for its card, and it enforces its ownership over both the card and ANY attached USB 3.0 devices. However, the LaCie driver is Universal, NOT Intel. REPEAT ... Universal, NOT Intel. You can find a hacked version of the LaCie driver on the 'Net, and the hacked driver has been hacked to allow BOTH non-LaCie external devices AND non-LaCie host cards. This includes ALL generic USB 3.0 external devices and ALL generic USB 3.0 cards (provided the cards are either Renesas- or Etron-based). The name of the driver is PXHCD.kext. > It's possible that it'll work as a USB2 device, but that's a lot of money > to waste for more USB2 ports. If the driver won't load, it won't work, period, not even for USB 2.0.
