What are you seeing?

In an Intel® Series Chipset platform with Windows 8* installed, some USB 3.0 devices are only working at USB 2.0 speeds.

Corsair Flash Voyager GT 32GB USB 3.0 thumb drive not working after upgrading to Windows 8 Pro. I've contacted Corsair about it, and they say it's a driver issue in Windows 8 and I need to contact my laptop manufacturer to get the latest drivers for it, however even though my manufactuer are at full steam advertising Windows 8.

Why are you seeing it?

The most common issue: The port might be routed to the ECHI controller instead of the xHCI controller. Check in Device Manager > Universal Serial Bus controllers.

Another possible issue: Some 3.0 USB devices are not compatible with the Windows 8* USB 3.0 driver.

How to fix it through upgrading the BIOS

Upgrade the BIOS to latest version. Get the latest version BIOS from your original equipment manufacturer (OEM).

How to fix it through enabling the xHCI mode setting

If the BIOS upgrade does not fix the issue, set the xHCI mode setting in BIOS to enable.

Check with the USB 3.0 device vendor to see if you can upgrade the device firmware.
