One of the reviewer say it has USB 3.0 is that correct? the product description say USB 2.0. Thanks.

Mine says 2.0 next to the port. So does the current product image. I bought mine some time ago and the specifications might have changed. I didn't measure the USB speed but I did measure the FireWire 800 speed and got 500 Mbs/sec not 800. Of course there might have been a variable that I might have ignored.

It works fine with USB 2.0... I've got three of these enclosures and all of them have been used successfully while plugged into a USB 2.0 interface.

Hello Jeremy, I thought this notebook does possess USB 3.0 ports but to make sure I checked with HP at their website(http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03534933.pdf) and this model has a total of 4 USB ports. 3 of them are 3.0 that are backward compatible with USB 1.1 and 2.0. The remaining USB port is a 2.0. Hope this help aid you in making your decision to purchase this model or not. Myself, I am quite pleased with the overall performance of this notebook.

Don't know for sure. I assume it is a clerical error on Amazon's part - associated wrong box image with the wrong product.If you look up the item number on LaCie's site, it says it is a USB 3.0 model.

USB 3.0 is backwards compatible, so any USB 2.0 will work in it. I don't see any reason why this setup shouldn't work. Hope this helps.

Mine has all four with the blue plastic that usually indicates usb3.0. A big boon that's not advertised is that there is a second drive bay, so you can add another hard drive or even a ssd. I have added an extra drive but it took quite a few minutes to recognize it. I haven't tried it but there seems to be empty ram bays as a well.

I must say its false marketing from Asus saying it has USB 3.0 on some models when its impossible to buy it, at least no sellers on the net specify it, what I have found.. (perhaps only one model is sold in one copy and is locked in the Asus test lab in China, yeah right so much fuss for that extra *** in the finetext of the specs) Why not be more clear on what models are with USB3.0 why not name it 1015PED-U3 instead?

NO, USB 2 only. The only reason USB 3 is mentioned is that it will work in a USB 3 port, but it will be USB 2 speed.

Amazon has a problem mixing reviews of different models. From the picture of the back of the WIFISD, it is definitely USB 2.0. I have the enclosure (WIFIHDD) that you add your own drive to and mine is definitely USB 3.0. From the pictures, the WIFIHDD750 and WIFIHDD500 are also USB 3.0. The USB 3.0 device connector is new and quite different from the old USB 2.0 connectors.

Yes, indeed, it is compatible with USB2.0. That's how I'm using it. (It says so in the 'Technical Details' in the description, but that's okay: I don't mind answering your question.)

Does your computer have USB 3.0? you should have 3.0. I have window 7 and usb 2.0; it did not match.

This is USB 2.It will work with USB 3.0. I do not see any improvement in performance.

Some are and some are not. They usually indicate if a 3.0 is backwards compatible with 2.0 on the package or description. This particular USB 3.0 works with 2.0 as well and it has been working just well for me.

Yes it will work in a USB 2.0 port, however you will only get USB 2.0 speed out of the drive when it is used in this way. To get 3.0 speed, the drive must be plugged into a 3.0 port.

Not sure what you're asking... Case I received did have one front USB 3.0 and one 2.0 as well... If that helps.

My computer has USB1.0 and it works fine. It does wobble a wee bit in the port but I use my laptop on my lap sitting on a soft sofa so there's alot of movement. I'm very pleased with it so far.

Yes, this one has. The most recent models of this model number have been upgraded to usb 3.0. But if you get an old model (older stock) they will have only a 2.0 despite having the same model number.
