A Closer Look

Ultra MD2 Media Dashboard

  1. I just bought one and to me it appears to be able to hook to the back of the pc or internal like for instance the case I have has 2 USB, eSata, headphone and mic jacks. I got this so I would more USB jacks, and the card readers. So you are really not using up the USB ports in the back your just relocating them to the front. If your case dont have all the stuff on front you can hook everything up to the board except the s/pdif. It hooks to the back if your computer is equipped with it. I’ve not had any problems with mine. I did notice though that it did not come with much info on the unit. That is how I stumbled accross here. It sounds like Ultra needs to take a minute and include some info though.

  2. Well, I was going to buy one of these, but not now!

  3. The link in Ecalabr’s post above is for the 3.5" version, and is not how my 5.25" version connected. Everything connected to motherboard ports (except the SPDIF, in my case). I did not get power errors reading cards or flash drives, but did when I plugged in a Zen. The Zen recharges through USB, so I guess it couldn?t handle that. Just thought I’d throw in some tempered argument here. If anyone can come up with a way to properly power the USB on this thing, I’d love to hear it!

  4. I bought 25 of these worthless things tried 7 of them in various computers none will work with USB flash drives. They give excessive power errors. Other brands tried I can put a drive in all 4 ports. Customer support proved to be valueless.

  5. http://www.ultraproducts.com/PDFs/manuals/ULT33066/ULT33066_1.pdf connects to ports in back of case.

  6. I have searched for hours looking for information concerning how this unit connects to a PC. what are the system requirements for use? Does it connect to motherboard front panel headers? (good), or does it take up all of the rear panel ports? (useless). How could this review and the vendors website fail to include this critical information?
