Z77 USB 3.0 problems

Hey people greetings from Hvar,Croatia.Ok,i have question.I bought USB 3.0 enclosure and put empty Crucial m4 in it.Then connect it to Intel USB 3.0 and it gives me only 200mb/s.After that i connect it to ASMedia USB 3.0 and same thing,only 200mb/s.I looked into enclosure and on chip writes ASMedia 1051,so it got to be USB 3.0.
If it was USB 2.0 it would give me only 30mb/s,right?
Somebody have any idea or experiences with this.
System:
Intel i7 3770K - ASUS P8Z77 V-DELUXE - Patriot Viper Extreme 2 x 4Gb 2133 - 2 x Samsung 840 PRO 128Gb Raid0 - Gigabyte HD7850 OC 2GB - Windows 7 64 bit
P.S. I would post a picture of ATTO but i dont know how.

I don't think I would say "only" 200, that seems very fast to me.

In my experience, USB2 is something like 25-30Mbps, yes. It seems safe to say that you aren't running at USB2 speeds.

I have USB3 ports in my PC but don't have a USB3 external drive, so I can't say for sure what to expect there. 200Mbps sounds great, for what that's worth.
 
.It seems that i have to install that lousy software if i want that speed.
But i think i got one more problem.It seems that ASMedia 1051 is only "sata2 to usb 3.0" and ASMedia 1051E is "sata3 to usb 3.0".I am not 100% sure what writes on chip,i have to find magnifying glass.
Tnx trecerbullet and Insert Nickname
 
A native USB3 controller/chassis for the external drive would probably be significantly faster. But he's right, 200MB is nothing to sneeze at.
