A:Answer Yes, it does. on the right side of the keyboard. Let me add that the placement of the USB ports is great! On my old laptop the ports were lower down and my mouse cable was always in the way. The ports and other access points on this Asus are up near the top of the keyboard (on both sides), so there is no issue with using my mouse and my external speakers! That little detail makes life a lot easier! I plug my cooling fan and my cable for my external back up into the ports on the other side.
