Default Media Card Reader

I want to add this extension to my PC. I have 3 open 2 and a half inch slots on my PC case. What type of connector do I need open on my MOBO to install one of these?

Heres My MOBO:

If I am not mistaken, these connect to a USB connection on the mainboard. They are not labeled, but it looks like they may be the 4 yellow connectors on the far right side of the picture you posted. Consult your mainboard manual to know for sure.

I see the card reader is made by Logisys. I DO NOT recommend Logisys. Their products do not last very long (my slimline keyboard backlight blew in about 2 months (or it was just me)). I'd go with a different company.
