What type USB interface is it? USB 1.1 / USB 2.0 / USB 3.0?

I've used it in 1.1 and 2.0 ports, and it works on both. I can't remember whether I tried it on my laptop, which only has 3.0 ports. Since you don't really transfer data through a keyboard or mouse, I can't imagine that they'd build this thing with the higher speed capabilities of 2.0 or 3.0.I just saw your latest comment and realized how unhelpful my answer was.

It's a standard 2.0 USB connection. The wording in the description is just funny. Any standard USB port will work.

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.

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.

If the "bar" running the width of the connector is blue, it's USB 3.0. No blue, USB 2

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

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

Probably a USB 2.0. I seriously doubt it's a 3.0. Doesn't matter as the serial port is MUCH slower anyway. The USB 3.0 computer port will work with slower stuff.

It works on either USB 2.0 or 3.0, I have a computer with USB 2.0, and another with 3.0 and this works on both.

Go to control panel and click system, then click on device manager. Scroll to bottom for USB list...should show 2.0 3.0, etc. If u have the original owners manual for ur PC or laptop, that will also tell u.

Yes. USB 3.0 is backwards compatible with USB 2.0 devices. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_3.0#Architecture_and_features

The connections are the same, I plug USB 2.0 into the 3.0 ports all the time. I assume they are compatible the other "direction."

Actually there is a 3.0 type B port for connecting to a type A on the laptop. There are two USB 3.0 type A ports on the Dock; one on the back, and one on the right side, which are perfect for connecting external drives in 3.0 mode.
