This drive works on both USB 2.0 and 3.0 however the read/write speeds are significantly slower on USB 2.0. Its still entirely usable, but expect to wait 30 minutes (as opposed to say 5-10) when copying over large amounts of data.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.All USB 3.0 external drives are backward compatible. It will work fine. You can identify your ports by color. USB 2.0 = Black tab in port, USB 3.0 = Blue tab in port.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It has a USB 3 interface which is compatible with usb 2 also. So it should work. Also usually usb 3 ports have a blue piece in them to tell it apart from USB 2 ports
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes USB 3.0 is backward compatible with USB 2.0
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If you get a drive that's USB 3 it is backwards compatible to USB 2. However, your USB 2 port won't have the USB 3 speeds so it will just act like a normal USB 2 drive.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes all USB 3.0 devices are backwards compatible with USB 2.0 because of the physical interface structure is the same but if plugged into a USB 2.0 port it will only run at USB 2.0 transfer rates.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes. The had drive will work with both. However, the speeds on usb 2.0 is slower.
