USB 1.1 = 12 megabit data transfer
USB 2.0 = 480 megabit data transfer You can run a USB 1.1 device in a USB 2.0 port, but may/may not be able to do it the other way around, and if you can, will be at an extreme sacrifice in performance.

USB 1.0: don't know
USB 1.1: max. 12mbps USB 2.0: max. 480mbps USB is backwards compatible, you can connect USB 1.1 devices into USB 2.0 ports and they will work. Not sure about vice versa but i think USB 2.0 devices won't work in USB 1.1 ports. RJ

You actually need to verify this on the particular device. Try visiting their Web site HTH TwoRails |
