Hi ali, not an easy question unfortunately as I imagine all PC layout, although similar, are not exactly the same. for my example. I have usb 1 and usb 2 connections. the usb 1 are two connection points located next door to the eithernet connection. the remaining 4 usb 2 connection points are located at the bottom of my pc. all are at the back, i have no front connection points at all. I've noticed that the more modern PC's do have usb connectors at the front which, i find intrigueing and probably more convinient two! to me, all 6 of my usb connections feel the same to me. i can't tell the difference between usb 1 and 2 other than where they are located. i had to be told that I had usb 2 connections as, I had no idea what the slots were at the bottom of my pc lol!
