Will this work in a usb 3.0?

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.

Hi Eric. Yes, it will work on a 3.0 USB port since USBs are forward and backward compatible. The difference will lie on the maximum speed supported by each one.

Yes it will work in a USB 2.0 port, however you will only get USB 2.0 speed out of the drive when it is used in this way. To get 3.0 speed, the drive must be plugged into a 3.0 port.

Sure - but it hampers the speed of the drive, since it's only transferring data at USB 2.0 speeds, not 3.0. But it will function

Yes. Usb 3.0 flash drives wors in both 3.0 and 2.0 and the same goes for 2.0 flash drives

I am not sure I understand your question...but this device works best with USB 3.0.

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

Yes, it works fine in USB 2.0 ports, usually faster than a 2.0 flash drive in the same port. You won't get the screaming speeds of a 3.0 flash drive in a 3.0 port, but it's definitely an improvement over the 2.0 flash drive.

If you mean usb 3.0, then the answer is no. Check the specs for the various flash drives you're looking at, they should say whether they're 2.0 or 3.0...

I don't know! I can tell you this, USB 3.0 is a relatively new technology which in my opinion is a "maybe it will work" technology and the suppliers of these cards should take the lead and be certain their products will work. Sometimes the motherboards are not designed to allow USB 3.0 to function.

Absolutely. Like most products, USB 3.0 is backward compatible with USB 2.0. You can also upgrade the Seagate to Firewire 8.0 or Thunderbolt with available connectors.

all adaptors will work.. this one cones with a USB 3.0 adaptor but a 2.0 would work as will it would just wont function at 3.0 speeds

It will work. I'm running it from a machine that just has USB 2.0. The transfer rates just won't be as fast as a 3.0 connection.

No. Unless the USB device works on USB 2.0. It won't be as fast as with USB 3. I agree with Robert.

Some are and some are not. They usually indicate if a 3.0 is backwards compatible with 2.0 on the package or description. This particular USB 3.0 works with 2.0 as well and it has been working just well for me.

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.

I only used it on a PC, However I assume it would as the Specification For USB 3.0 is universal to All Computers.

Yes it will work fine, but of course only at USB 2.0 speeds. You can also use the USB 3.0 cable it comes with to plug into a USB 2.0 port.
