Compatibility
The good news is that USB 3.0/USB 3.1 Gen 1 has been carefully planned from the start to peacefully co-exist with USB 2.0.
First of all, while USB 3.0/USB 3.1 Gen 1 specifies new physical connections and thus new cables to take advantage of the
higher speed capability of the new protocol, the connector itself remains the same rectangular shape with the four USB 2.0
contacts in the exact same location as before. Five new connections to carry receive and transmitted data independently are
present on USB 3.0/USB 3.1 Gen 1 cables and only come into contact when connected to a proper SuperSpeed USB connection.
Windows 10 will be bringing native support for USB 3.1 Gen 1 controllers. This is in contrast to previous versions of Windows,
which continue to require separate drivers for USB 3.0/USB 3.1 Gen 1 controllers.

Power button LED behavior

On certain Dell Latitude systems, the power button LED is used to provide an indication of the system status, and as a result the
power button illuminates when pressed. The systems with the optional power button/fingerprint reader will have no LED under
the power button and hence will apply the available LED's in the system to provide an indication of the system status.
Power button LED behavior without Fingerprint reader
● System is ON (S0) = LED illuminates solid white.
