Connecting USB devices

Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a serial bus design capable of cascading peripherals such as a digital camera, keyboard, mouse, joystick, scanner, printer and modem. With USB, complex cable connections can be eliminated.

Your computer comes with eight external USB ports: four on the front and four on the rear panel. These ports support USB 2.0 high-performance external devices such as webcams and digital still cameras. They also allow you to connect additional USB devices to your computer without using up its resources.

To connect a USB device, simply plug the device cable into any of the USB ports (black) located on the front and rear panels of your computer.
