Universal Serial Bus Ports
The two Universal Serial Bus 2.0 ports (USB) allow you to connect USB devices such as external floppy
disk drives, external DVD drives, game pads, pointing devices, keyboards and/or speakers. USB 2.0 is

is a much faster design, running forty times faster than USB 1.1.
In order to connect a USB device, follow these easy steps:
