There are 6 USB 2.0 ports and 2 USB 3.0 ports. I actually highly recommend this board, AS Rock is the sister company of Asus. The board is great for an 'above average' build for the price.

Every USB 3.0 device is 2.0 compatible... you just loose speed/throughput and extremely high resolution, multi-monitor setups with GbE all running at the same time would likely suffer.

One USB port but some functions are limited by power of the device. Ie I could use on my MacBook, but couldn't format. Had to format from my iMac.

I check in the entire manual and there is no mention of the USB Port Version. Sorry.

YES, Actually all my PCs comes with 2.0 usb ports and it works just fine. ps it works perfect on windows 7 stations because it needs around 500mA (not sure) from the usb ports to work. some XP machines achieve it but others don't because of the power limitations (usually old PCs).

Each port uses a different USB spped. ie. 1.0, 2.0. You can use any of them. THe standard use is 2.0.

It has been my understanding there is no compatibility issues with USB devises going from 2.0 to 3.0. With that being said all my USB hubs are 2.0, so I have no way of verifying. Wish I could be a greater help.

Yes, all USB3.0 flash drives are backwards compatible with 2,0 USB slots. Just with the slower speed.

Micro HDMI but only 1 USB 3.0 and another USB 2.0 (2 USB ports in total but only I USB 3.0)

USB 2.0 port will remain a USB 2.0 port because of the bus speed. It won't make it 3.0 even if you plug in this hub. Hope this helps.

I can't say with any certainty that the ports are all 2.0 or 3.0 or one of each. I have only one peripheral that is a USB 3.0 and it doesn't work with the router because the router will not recognize it as a back up disk. I can tell you that one port is black on the inside and the other is blue if that helps. My understanding is that blue represents USB 3.0. Sorry I can't be more helpful. Other reviews debated the same question.
