The SATA optical drives functioned entirely as expected and both of the attached USB Flash Drives were recognised in Windows 10 with their contents fully accessible. Prior to test, the latest released drivers were installed and the system re-started. A pair of SATA BluRay/DVD optical drives were attached to the SATA ports (in order to preserve the on-board SATA ports for conventional SDD/HDD's and also to supplement the Samsung NVMe drives) along with two USB flash drives attached to the card's vacant USB ports for test purposes. Prior to installation, both cards were successfully tested in the X58 PC before swapping them such that the original working card previously installed in the X58 was now assigned to a spare PCIe X16 rail on the X299 Edition 30 (PCIE 3.0/2.0 X16_3). Both cards are fully updated to receive the latest available firmware for their respective SATA & USB controller chips.

I have two of these cards available (both are Rev1.0G models) one of which continues to serve me well in an aging Asus P6T7 X58 system running successfully on 64 bit Windows 10 Pro (currently 1909 as above) for many years. As a result it seemed prudent to add two further Gen 1, USB 3.0 ports by way of a surplus Asus U3S6 add-on PCIe card. The system build is constructed around the recently released Asus Prime X299 Edition 30 motherboard and a i9-7900x CPU, this full-featured board whilst incorporating current tech advances however lacks adequate conventional USB port provision. I have recently completed a system build project and in doing so encountered a frustrating "code 10" driver error on a freshly clean installed, fully updated 64 bit Windows 10 Pro (Version 1909, OS Build 18363.565) which is 'vanilla' with no other software currently installed.
