I have a question about AK-ICR-17 card reader.
There are two cables with USB 3.0 connectors, should I use both or just a one ? (USB 3.0 A male connector & internal USB 3.0 motherboard connector)
My motherboard supports internal and external USB 3.0.

Just one, it depends on how you want it connected, internal leaves less mess outside.

Are You sure? becouse I think they are for two different connections (for example one for card reader, second for USB hub), but there is nothing about it in manual...

According to the manual, all wires need to be attached, so yeah put both in.

FYI
Akasa anserw:

"The 19pin internal connector is for the card reader and one of the USB 3.0 port, the second USB 3.0 port is connected through the USB 3.0 external type A male port. Please connect both the internal and external cable to be able to use all of the USB 3.0 card reader and the external ports."
