USB devices

Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a new serial bus design that is capable of
cascading low-/medium-speed peripherals (less than 12 Mbps) such as a
keyboard, mouse, joystick, scanner, printer and modem. With USB,
complex cable connections can be eliminated.
Your computer comes with four USB ports; two are located on the rear
panel while the other two are inside the front panel's multimedia port
bay. These ports allow you to connect additional USB devices to your
computer without using up precious system resources.
To connect a USB device, simply plug the device cable into any of the
USB ports. The Plug and Play function of your USB interface allows you
to connect and disconnect a USB device without turning off your
computer.
Note: Most USB devices have a built-in USB port which allows you
to daisy-chain other devices.
