Ok so no matter what I will have to plug this up to the USB2 connections
directly on my MOBO? I wanted to use those on the MOBO for an USB2 hub to be
placed in my other 3.5" bay. Here is it here:

Will probably connect OK to the headers on the motherboard.
Need to understand what each descriptor on the plug means in
order to be able to connect to corresponding pin.
Now with the card reader, I was thinking I would just run the USB cable out
the back and plug it into one of the USB connectors on the back of the
computer. I did not think I would have to plug anything up to the MOBO. Did
I get this wrong?
It would appear that there might be a proprietary hookup
of the card reader. If available, download the instruction
*** from Lian Li Industrial. However, there are other
USB card readers with similar capabilities and "standard"
USB connectivity between it and the backplane or USB hub.
I guess what I am asking is whether I will be able to put both devices
inside the computer?

Thank you all.
