One of my computers is running Win98 and has a usb 1.0 port. Can I back it up to an external drive which has a usb 2.0 port? Someone, please lead me by the hand on this one. thanks **************Vote for your city's best dining and nightlife. City's Best 2008. (http://citysbest.aol.com?ncid=aolacg00050000000102)
Yes, most USB 2 devices will work on a USB 1 port, although at the much, much slower USB 1 rate. (I added a new USB 2 card to my Win 98 computer so I could speed things up a bit.) Alfred D.
