It's a crap shoot.



All I can tell you is I bought this one for my MDD and it definitely does not work:



CP TECHNOLOGIES USB2.0 High Speed PCI Card Model CP-U2P-05 - Retail



What it is about that card, I do not know. See if you can get one that at least mentions Mac compatible. You'd think USB 2 would be kind of a standard by now.

The d-link one has mac drivers and the other ones don't need them does that make it any better?

Check on D-Link's site to see if the drivers are in fact OS X drivers. A lot of these companies say that, and then you find out the drivers are for OS 9.



A USB PCI card shouldn't need drivers anyway. The one I got was recognized fine by System Profiler, but when I would go to sync my iPod that was plugged into it, it would lock up iTunes after syncing the first track. It was like it "almost" worked...
