The USB 3.0 of the Port Replicator freezes after about 10 seconds of using.

Actually Toshiba drivers ans BIOS (Bios Update 3.7 with mode 2) are installed.
Toshiba Support can't help.

Toshiba uses old Renesas Electronics USB 3.0 Host Controller driver (2.0.34.0, 10-Feb-2011,
Firmware version 4015) for the NEC/Renesas Electronics uPD720200A USB 3.0 Host Controller. Maybe this is the reason? Firmware: 4.0.2.0, Driver: 2.1.36.0 are available at http://www.station-drivers.com/page/renesas.htm

Does anyone has no problems with USB 3.0 and the Portégé R830-1EE with Hi Speed Port Replicator II?

Hi

I’m not Hi Speed Port Replicator II owner so cannot share my experience with you.
But as far as I know the Port Replicator II supports 6 USB ports. Two of this ports are USB 3.0.
Did you notice the same problems with two USB 3.0?
Did you notice also the problems with USB 2.0?

The Portege R830 supports the USB 3.0 too and its also compatible with the Toshiba Hi-Speed Port Replicator II … so usually the compatibility issue should not be a big problem.

Hi MisterX,

the USB 2.0 ports are OK. Only the 3.0 freeze.
Toshiba has no solution, the support war awful.
I send the hardware back to the dealer.

This means you cannot run further tests…
Anyway thanks for feedback.
