Does also work with USB 2.0 ?

Yes it is backward compatible. I will just operate at the slower speed of USB2.0

Yes, we are currently using it with USB 2.0 and are very pleased with this product.

The enclosure uses USB 3.0 which is backward compatible with USB 2.0. Your transfer speeds will suffer but it will work.

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.)

Yes, all USB 3.0 devices will work in a USB 2.0 port, they will just run significantly slower due to the limits of USB 2.0 technology.

Yes! that is exactly what I did, but you will only get USB 2.0 speeds I haven't had any problems with mine.

It will work with USB 2.0, just considerably slower. In my very informal testing it was about 1/3 as fast when plugged into a USB 2.0 port than when using a USB 3.0 port.

Yes, all USB 3.0 is backwards compatible with USB 2.0. I thought my comp had 3.0 when I bought this, turns out I only have 2.0. Works great.

Yes, I use it for both USB 3 and 2 and it works fine. But it is a lot slower with 2.0.

Check your Owners Manuel. If it accepts USB 2.0 or later it should work fine.

Yes it will work with USB 2.0 plugs. I used this on my pc desktop 2.0 USB plugs and it works fine.

Not sure, however I looked online and I think it only works with USB 3.0 port.

Yes it will work with USB2. Obviously, the read and write speeds will be greatly reduced as USB2 is MUCH slower then USB3.

It doesn't matter. It will work fine on any USB port (regardless if it is 2.0 or 3.0).

I assume you mean USB 2.0, in which case yes, it would work. 3.0 is backwards-compatible.

Folks.. USB is USB... you extend it and it's still USB. YES it will work with ANY USB device that matches the USB 2.0 spec.

USB 3.0 is backwards compatible with 2.0 so in theory it should still work. I can't speak from experience though so I'm not 100% sure it will work.

It works with USB 2.0 at 2.0 speed. But its worth it because of the future proofing aspect. 3.0 is much much faster. Hope i helped.

Yes, it should work with your USB 2.0 ports. As long as it can pull enough power (sometimes front USB ports don't work as well as the rear ones)
