USB 2 and USB 3 Ports On New Desktops: Why Have Both ?
Hello,
Have been looking at some new Desktops, and it seems HP, Dell, and some others have
both USB 2 and USB 3 Ports built in.
Question: If USB 3 is truly and fully backward compatible, whey the need for the USB 2 ?
Why not just have all USB 3 ?
Is it to save a few cents in the implementation ?
Or,...?
And, 4 Ports on many, even the pricier ones, isn't very many.
Does a powered USB Hub work, usually, very well, and easily makes up for the deficiency ?
Any caveats, etc. ?
Thanks,
Bob
