Hi, people just want to share with you I'd success installing this card, and I would like to make a question for you:

GMYLE® ExpressCard 34mm to USB 3.0 Adapter (Dual Port)

at Macbook Pro 17 mid2010
with OS X Yosemite 10.10
(I didn't update yet for last ver. because I made a clean install)

First I installed this pkg:
CalDigit_USB3_Driver_10_10_X_1.4.4.pkg

But it doesn't function:
System report says ExpressCard driver is not installed

next I installed only this kext:
CalDigitUSBxHCI.kext ver.1.3.8

using
Kext Drop.app ver.1.1

I didn't installed this kext that usually install together
CalDigitFastIO.kext ver.2.6.1

Do you think I need to install it?
I'm not an expert and fear to mess it all.

I attached my system report screenshot:

iTunes sync tested and OK with 3 iDevices AT REGULAR MACBOOK PORTS, NOT AT CARD 2 PORTS THAT EVEN CAN'T CHARGE THE IPAD.
File transferred from USB3 external hard drive with success and apparently fast than USB2 port. Only strange thing is the transfer is not continuous, apparently goes on block of data.


Thanks in advance.
