• If you have neither USB 2.0 or FireWire, you can purchase and
install a third-party PCI USB 2.0 or FireWire plug-in host adapter
card.
• If you don't want to purchase a separate card, you can use your PC's
built-in USB 1.1 port. However this limits the CD-RW drive
performance of the Plextor PX-755UF to 4X write, 4X rewrite, and
6X read. DVD performance with USB 1.1 is 0.7X.
