About USB

USB (Universal Serial Bus), a means of attaching devices to your
computer, is basically a standardized intelligent serial connection which
provides an expandable, hot-pluggable*
USB range from simple items like mice and keyboards to more
complicated devices like printers, MP3 players, and storage devices. One
other benefit of USB is plug and play. That is, when you plug the USB
device in, it is automatically detected, drivers installed and then ready for
operation.

interface. Devices suitable for

USB 2.0 supports data transfer at up to 480Mbps for high-speed devices.
It is backward compatible with USB1.1*

software and peripherals. If your

computer doesn’t have a built-in USB 2.0 port, you need to install a USB

2.0 PCI host card in your pc for the CD-RW drive to run at USB 2.O speed.
Otherwise, this CD-RW drive will run at standard USB speed.
