what is the usb 3.0 cable Interfere port?

USB 3.0 port transfer rate is 4.8Gbps, 10 times faster than USB 2.0. To enjoy this speed your computer must first come with a USB 3.0 port (normally coloured blue) and the cable you use must also be USB 3.0. The device you are trying to connect to must also be of USB 3.0 and if you are connecting it via a USB HUB it must also be USD 3.0. If anywhere along that line of connection you have something that is USB 2.0 then the speed will drop to 480MB

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.

Not this one - it's the wrong kind of connection type on the peripheral side. You'd want this one instead (Type A to Type B) - Cable Matters SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Type A to B Cable in Blue 6 Feet

No. USB 3.0 require more power and are more intricate. A separate, blue rectangular port on the MB is needed.

Please keep in mind the port is a 3.0 USB so not all devices are compatible with this type of port.

It didn't work for me with a single USB 3.0 port. I also had to connect the additional cable to the USB 2.0 port I have to power the drive.

I'm not sure what to tell you. Mine has been working great since I've received it. I would recommend this product to anyone. Have you tried a different USB port? Try asking for a replacement, the price is just too good.

Depends on the computer/laptop a lot of manufactures like to make the connection blue, or have a special symbol. If you look in your computer management->Universal Serial Bus controller you should see one listed as USB 3.0.

I'm not 100% tech savvy, but I think the major difference would be speed, if I'm not mistaken. 3.0 is the latest standard, isn't it? I think the transfer speed makes the difference, in which case I don't mind this one because I don't have any 3.0 USB items....I'm not much help in this matter, I just needed extra ports because I've downsized from a desktop to a laptop temporarily, so when I saw this I just grabbed it. It works quite well for what it's worth. I'm sorry if it this doesn't help.

Mine came with a cable for the 3.0 header and one that just plugged into a spare port if you don't have the header. I didn't try it, but I assume that the USB cable just turns the device into a powered hub.

One end is USB, but where does the other (old fashioned) looking end plug in at??

Mine came with what was described as a USB 3.0 cable. I don't have a USB 3.0 port, so I plugged it into one of my USB 2 ports, and it works just fine. I hope this is helpful to you.

I have not known any USB connection to be one directional. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the software. In most cases that is a software issue. Not a hardware issue. But at any rate, the coat of the cable here compaired to picking one up at a local store. This one is much cheaper.

My Hannspree is connected to a USB 3 port and I haven't had any problems with it, so no I don't think it matters at all.

The usb cable it comes with has 2 different ends to connect to your computer. I am guessing one is 3.0 but I don't know the difference to look at them.

I don't know, and I don't have a USB 3.0 hub to try. Their FAQ says nothing either way: http://www.caldigit.com/thunderboltstation/faq.asp
