Does this require two USB ports or just one?

Just one, but I hated the mouse (too small and uncomfortable for long use). Purchased a separate bluetooth mouse.

I only use 1 connector. It depends on the PC your using, some computers have low USB current, they require to connectors.

Yes, it has 2 USB Ports. Oops, just noticed that a couple people already answered. I really like this laptop, if that helps. My sister just ordered one too and she likes it as well. Take Care!

To my knowledge, there is only one port. Since I never had the need nor interest in looking further, I cannot be certain. devh devh

It has one Micro USB port. You can use a Micro USB to regular USB to connect a flash drive.

Yes, it has one USB 2.O port. If I need use more than one USB external drive, I plug in my Belkin USB 2.0 4-Port Ultra-Mini Hub.

One free USB port on your laptop. When you plug this into that port you now have 4 ports instead of one. I have my desk speakers and headset plugged in at all times, when I use either one I just push the button to switch the other off.

You don't have to use both of the USB ports, I only use the one. The thought is the secondond USB cable will increase the speed but honestly I haven't noticed any marked increase

Yes, there are two USB 3 ports. These are the only 2 usb ports available. Note that the usb ports are situated close together. So, if you plug in a usb device that is relatively large, you may not be able to use both usb ports at the same time.

You need to plug both USB ends. This way, your external HDD will draw more power than from a single USB 2.0 port.

I've heard the reason for the two USB's is in case you have a computer that doesn't provide enough power on just one USB, then you have to use two. It seems to work fine with just one USB with my Compaq (HP) 6730s laptop. I've also tried in on my HP desktop and it also works with just one USB. My thoughts are, try it with one and if it works, great! If not, then you'll have to use two.

It only needs the 2 usb plugs if you have a really old mac or pc if your laptop is only couple years old you'll be fine I run it off one cable using win tablet

I have used two of my USB 3.0 ports to use it. One for power the other for data.

Yes, it has two usb cables. I always plug them both in to my usb ports on my laptop. One I believe is the power, and the other the regular usb connection.

This one works great with all USB ports. I'm thinking of getting another. Good luck to you.

Umm, it's a USB hub? It let's you plug in more than one usb device. Did you not read the description?
