Here's a easy way to add two USB 3.1 Gen 2 (10MBps)  ports  to your Z workstation, this also works on the later Zx20 series workstations

 

the silverstone ECU04-E card is a PCI-E 2.0 x8 card which has a standard 19 pin USB type A header on it

when mated with a 3.2 or a 5.25 front USB panel

you have a complete usb 3.1 setup that is twice as fast as the HP USB 3.0 Gen 1 card (5 GBps)

the only downside to my solution is that unlike the HP setup, that has 2 front and two back ports the silverstone card only has 2 front 3.1 Gen 2 ports they also make a USB3.1 gen 1 + Gen 2 card (4 ports) but only the back ports are Gen 2, the front ports are Gen 1
