The VirtualBox Extension Pack adds useful new features to this popular virtualisation package.
It includes a USB (EHCI) controller, for instance, which should allow you to get better performance from your USB devices. You'll probably need to enable the controller manually, though, as well as add filters for the USB devices you'd like to use (the VirtualBox manual has more details).
You also get VirtualBox Remote Desktop Protocol (VDRP) support. Essentially this allows you to run a virtual machine on one PC, while you view and control it from another: again, the manual has the full story.
And there's also support for remote booting a computer through emulation of the Intel PXE boot ROM with support for the E1000 network card.

None of this requires separate installation, as the extension pack has a 'vbox-extpack' file extension that's handled by VirtualBox. So close down VirtualBox, download and double-click on the extension pack, and VirtualBox will launch and install it for you, upgrading any earlier version you might have.
Verdict:
The Extension Pack enhances VirtualBox with some useful capabilities.
As you may know, Windows 7 doesn't support USB 3.0 by default. This is also why the installation of Windows 7 from an USB 3.0 key requires a little manipulation beforehand.
In short, because Windows 7 supports USB 2.0 by default and not USB 3.0, VirtualBox defaults to an USB 2.0 controller when you create a virtual machine to install Windows 7.
This is visible in the device manager in your virtual machine running Windows 7.
To use an USB 3.0 controller in a VirtualBox virtual machine under Windows 7, you must first go to the USB section of your virtual machine's settings.
Then, select : Controller 3.0 (xHCI).
In the Windows 7 guest operating system, you will see that Windows couldn't automatically install the driver for the used USB bus controller since it doesn't support it by default.
In the device manager, this 'Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controller' will appear with a yellow icon as there is no driver for this device.
To solve this problem, you had to download and install the 'USB 3.0 Driver: Intel® USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller Driver for Intel® 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family' provided by Intel.
Nevertheless, as was stated on the official website of Intel, this 'product' was at the end of life.
And today, this page and this driver are no longer available from their official website.
Fortunately, the 'Archive.org' site had saved these pages, as well as the associated driver.
So, you can download this official 'Intel USB 3.0 eXtensible' driver via the archive.org cache.
