The initial production model had 2.0 ports. It was then updated to have 3.0 ports though remained with the same model name. Possible to get either one.

I know older models had a cable pass through to a back USB 3.0 port for that. I know there is a version that requires on-board USB headers for USB 3.0. This one? From one of the reviews, it looks like it has the internal headers. I'd like to know for certain though.

USB 3 is backward compatible with USB 2. You just won't see the speed benefit of USB 3

No you cannot you can though get an expansion card for about 20 to 40 dollars that will have a USB 3.0 header.

Presumably OS 10.6 since it requires a thunderbolt port and the first generation that included them were released in 2011. Just know that usb3 support wasn't added to the os until 10.8

Of course. USB 3.0 is backward compatible with USB 2.0, however, it will run at USB 2.0 speeds...

it is 3.0 but it comes with a separate USB cable to provide power if your using USB 2.0, so in that case you will need 2 USB ports. BTW USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 are the exact same connector, USB 3.0 just provides more power.

Yes, there are two USB 3.0 inputs as well as a USB 2.0 input on the front panel.

I got v3 in December. That's the one with USB id 1b80:e34c. Supported in latest Linux kernels, if that's why you ask.

The box only mentions USB 2.0. I would guess a USB 3.0 should be ok, just won't get the 3.0's speed rate for data.

An adapter is not supplied. I have no problem with the 3.0 USB connection. External power adapter port is available. Very happy with this drive.

You bet! USB 3.0 supports exponentially faster transfer rates, but it's also backwards compatible to work with 2.0 device connections.

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.

The board does support usb 3.0, however, you must have a compatible case with front usb headers. Best method to view compatible pc configurations is by going to pcpartpicker.com

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