USB 2.0/1.1 Ports*

USB 3.0 Port

These USB (Universal Serial Bus) 2.0 compatible ports (USB 2.0 is fully USB 1.1 compliant) are
for low-speed peripherals such as keyboards, mice or scanners, and for high-speed peripherals
such as external HDDs, digital video cameras or high-speed scanners etc. Devices can be
plugged into the computer, and unplugged from the computer, without the need to turn the
system off (if the power rating of your USB device is 500mA or above, make sure you use the
power supply which comes with the device).

This model has two USB 3.0 ports on the left side of the computer which are denoted by their blue
color. USB 3.0 will transfer data much faster than USB 2.0, and is backwards-compatible with
USB 2.0. The USB 3.0 port requires a driver installation (see

“USB 3.0” on page 4 - 7

).

*Note: The powered USB 2.0 port (see

“Left View” on page 1 - 14

) may be toggled on /off by

means of the Fn + Power Button key combination. When the powered USB port is on it will supply
power when the system is off but still powered by the AC/DC adapter plugged into a working outlet,
or powered by the battery with a capacity level above 20% (this may not work with certain devices
- see page

8 - 13

).
