USB 3.0
USB 3.0 is a technology standard that connects devices like external drives, keyboards, and printers to your computer, allowing data transfer. It offers faster speeds than earlier versions, typically up to 5 gigabits per second, making file transfers quicker. USB 3.0 ports are usually recognizable by their blue color and can also supply more power to connected devices. This improvement enhances overall efficiency and performance, supporting larger files and more demanding applications. USB 3.0 is backward compatible with older USB devices, ensuring broad compatibility with existing hardware.
