E9x USB Version
Anybody know the version of USB for the E9x usb port? I bought a USB 3 drive for importing music to my HD, it seems pretty quick, but don't know if it's utilizing the USB 3. My guess would be no, but found no evidence.

that connector is the SuperSpeed USB 3.1 connector....USB 3.0 is the exact same connector as 2.0 and backward compatible.

The connector I showed above was a double USB 3.0 connector. Here is a PIN reference guide: Here's the wikipedia article regarding the same: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_3.0 Additionally, 3.1 devices won't be available until early 2014, as the standard was just finalized not too long ago. http://news.cnet.com/8301-1023_3-575...up-to-10-gbps/ You are, however, correct in that 3.0 is backwards compatible into 2.0 Last edited by whats77inaname; 08-29-2013 at 11:27 AM.. |
