### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ works great!
*by M***G on April 26, 2015*

beautiful piece! works like a clock, was easy to install and easy to use. the marked com port numbers do not always match what is in the system, seems like the same 'ol windows com port configuration problem assigning com numbers. still giving 5 starts!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works for Server 2016.
*by K***S on February 14, 2017*

For the PEX8S952, the 8 port serial card. It did NOT come with a low profile adapter. It does work on Server 2016 with the included drivers.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I'm a fan
*by P***C on August 28, 2017*

I put this unit in the same machine as a Rocket Port multi-port card. Windows 7 only recognized 4 of the 8 ports but that was sufficient for the day and I didn't investigate further. I have used other StarTech serial cards with great success where cheaper cards in the same application have failed.
