G751 - Problem with USB3.0 ports (left side) and external HD... anyone else?

[Richdog]

So, I am now experiencing a problem whereby when I attach my external 3.5" WD HDD to the USB ports on the left side of the ASUS G751 and copy large amounts of data, the throughput will drop and then the HDD will disconnect. I verified this multiple times in both ports. In the ports on the right side, it works fine.

I did some reading and found a forum post where someone stated: http://forum.notebookreview.com/asus-gaming-notebook-forum/765303-considering-g751.html#post9836352

next.... USB 3.0 problems..

basically, I had to connect my USB drives to the right ports and the left ones were kept for my mouse and printer? why? because ASUS cannot produce a piece of hardware that functions right! they claim all ports are USB 3.0 and they are all in blue color...BIG LIE! it wasn't only me, I posted this on the ROG forums and every single one of the members verified the same!

My question is what the hell is causing this, and how can it be fixed? I do not want a laptop where 2x USB ports are essentially useless, and this seems to be a widespread issue dating back to earlier models like the G750. Why has this not been addressed and fixed?

If anyone else has this issue please post here... :mad:

Latest modded Intel USB 3.0 drivers by Fernando from win-raid forum v5.0.4.43 are detected on all of my g752 and g751 as not digitally signed. Although Fernando claims their are signed. Yeah, I installed the certificate! I have the the older version 5.0.0.32 and they are detected to have Authenticode signing. Maybe there are some versions between the newest and 5.0.0.32 that will get detected as signed, but defenetly not 5.0.4.43. When I asked Fernando to fix his 5.0.4.43 signing or provide older versions, he told me for him v5.0.4.43 work and he does not intend to help he with my little problem.
Rather strange that the 5.0.4.43 are not detected as signed on my 5 asus laptops and no one has this problem, judging from win-raid forum.

Which win 10 version are you using ?
is it 1903 / 1909 ?
if so MS put new restriction on self-signed drivers ...read here more about it and see that other ppl have about the same issue with different drivers from different developer as well.

soooooooo... basically all this talk of off-topic and should be made in win-raid forums.:cool:
