Unless it's states otherwise on the box/description, yes it will work but only at USB 2.0 speed.

If you have a usb3.0 port and you have downloaded the drivers of should work

Yes this devise will work on a USB 2.0 port. But as with any legacy device, your transfer speeds will be reduced due to USB 2.0 being a slower input/output channel than USB 3.0.

This hub is USB 3.0 and backwards compatible with earlier versions of USB. It is plug and play with Windows 8.1 64 bit (which I run). Just plug it into a USB port, power it up and it works. The card you are running is irrelevant. It plugs into a USB port.

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.

I'm using the Plugable 2.0 version that the manufacturer suggested above, and it's working like a charm for me, for what it's worth. Might save a couple of bucks since the Pi can't use USB 3.0, and get the same outcome otherwise.

It most definitely will work in 2.0 port as well as the newer faster USB port. I am listening to the SAFETY DANCE on my BLUETOOTH stereo headset using that port on my laptop as I am answering your question.. D.Fish

I use a USB 2.0 and it works perfectly fine. Unless you are backing up the library of congress, you will have no problems.

You are correct. This accessory only works on one type of USB that is not on any HP product. Their website does not state that. I had to do many hours of research to find out and ended up with a two hundred dollar piece of crap. Sorry it happened to you.

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

No. The minimum OS is 10.4.x (10.4.11 recommended). The hardware required is USB 2.0--it is not backwards compatible with USB 1.1. Hope this helps.
