For those that don't know this yet, if you have a 2.4GHz device in proximity to a USB 3 device, the 2.4GHz device acts very erratic, or not at all.
Intel posted this about this issue:

Problem is, I can't locate any USB 3 device that is shielded correctly as that paper specifies.
This goes for the motherboards as well, virtually none of them do it, and that includes intel motherboards.
In this situation, they got wireless devices that they wear around their neck, using the 2.4GHz spectrum, and their new machine was bought to get the USB 3 speeds to do backups.
Wrapping foil around the USB 3 device isn't an option for a variety of reasons, and, they can't remove the wireless device from their neck, so, how do you fix this conundrum?
Go back to using an older machine + eSATA (if you can still find laptops with that), or, is there another option here?
