Know your USB…
USB 3.0, the latest version of USB (Universal Serial Bus), provides better speed and more efficient power management than USB 2.0. USB 3.0 is backward compatible with USB 2.0 devices; however, data transfer speeds are limited to USB 2.0 levels when these devices inter-operate.
If you’re purchasing any hardware – please check if it has USB 2.0 or 3.0 ports on it before procuring your flash drives.
