I thought "port" referred to the slots in the bus... which are neither
white nor blue . I guess the end of the cords are ports.
My neighborhas both USB3 and USB2 connectors so I just saw the
difference tonight... more difference than color -...
The USB3 ends won't fit on the slots on my machine so I either need to
get an adaptor or get an external drive that is USB2

If you're going to be using the external HD for any real time work,
you're going to need USB 3.0. The way to tell, if they followed
convention, the USB 2.0 ports are white the 3.0 are blue.

My computer is an HP 8000 PC with 4g ram and 1tb hard drive... got it
refurbished without a lot of documentation -- I don't know if my USB

Does it matter? The Sea-gate 2t is $89 at my Staples and I have a
$16 coupon from them... Ijust want to backup everything on to it.. I
only have200GB of hard drive free on the internal - need to prune but
though it would be nice to backup first...

That's pretty good.
I just checked the exchange rate & $99 CAD is $75 USD, so that's about
$15 USD cheaper than Staples is selling them here in the states.

I have decided, now that i have the time, to transfer all of my
CD and
DVD back up photo disks to an external HD, I need a new one
anyway and
Staples has a nice Seagate 2tb on sale. I also have a number of
32 gig
thumb drives i thought might also do the trick. Just curious
would the
transfer rate be better from the CD player to externals as
opposed to
thumb drives.?
