• The plugged USB 3.0 device may run on xHCI mode or EHCI mode, depending on the operating system’s setting.
•USB 3.0 devices can only be used as data storage only.
•We strongly recommend that you connect USB 3.0 devices to USB 3.0 ports for faster and better performance for your USB 3.0 devices.
•
•Due to the design of Intel® 9 series chipset, all USB devices connected to the USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 ports are controlled by the xHCI controller. Some legacy USB devices must update their firmware for better compatibility.
