FAQ:
Do Hi-Speed USB devices work with older USB ports?

Answer:
Hi-Speed USB devices are backward compatible (work with earlier versions of a standard) with plain old USB ports. But keep in mind that a Hi-Speed USB device will function at slower USB speeds when attached to a plain old USB port; a Hi-Speed USB device will only operate at the maximum possible speeds when attached to a Hi-Speed USB port. Similarly, you can attach an older USB device to a Hi-Speed USB port, but the device will only work at the lower speeds.
