I purchased the NZXT H510 Elite expecting a motherboard with USB 3.1 Gen 2 internal header, but it lacked that feature. I realized an alternative approach: hiding a storage device on that port and connecting it via a USB-C to A cable. For the adapter part, I’m unsure which devices would convert the internal header to a standard USB A port—please let me know if my explanation needs clarification.

I’ll handle this by exploring the pin configurations thoroughly. I need to review all the connections to be certain. Checking the sources you shared will help clarify how everything fits together.

I’m unsure about the exact purpose of each part, but I’ll try to figure it out.)
