Ainex Intros PF-107CR3 Multi-Functional 5.25-inch Front-Panel

Exactly a month after rolling out the 3.5-inch optimized PF-213CR3 multi-functionality front-panel, Japanese peripherals vendor Ainex rolled out its larger sibling for your empty 5.25-inch bays, the PF-107CR3. Featuring a matte black bezel, the device provides a lot more connectivity than its 3.5-inch sibling, featuring three USB 3.0 SuperSpeed ports (two by standard headers, one by cable), five USB 2.0/1.1 ports, of which one features a high-power (850 mA) output, for charging your gadgets; and a multi-format card reader that supports standard SDHC/SDXC, micro SDHC/SDXC, Memory Stick Pro/Duo/Pro Duo, and CompactFlash Type I/II. In addition to the three USB 3.0 inputs, its back-panel features a 2-port USB 2.0/1.1 header, and a SATA power input. The PF-107CR3 is expected to ship later this month.
