I am getting a ipod and it connects with a USB 2.0... Can this motherboard
handle this connection? I will have to get a new card.

thanks, ken

USB2 cards should usually work fine. Preferably use something with NEC
chip, these appear pretty much trouble free.

You will need a USB 2.0 PCI Expansion card.

AFAIK it should work, but SLOW. Something like half an hour per GB or so.

I spoke with Apple and they said the file transfers between the USB 2.0 and
the Ipod is extremely quick. Are you saying it is "SLOW" because of the
motherboard?

I thought 2.0 allows for a fast transfer of data.

Don't remember, around 30 EUR or so?

Of course not! You can still use the onboard ports for low-bandwidth
devices.

He's saying slow because if you connected it via your onboard USB, it'd be
transferring in USB 1.1 mode which is very slow.

If you got a USB 2.0 add on card though, it should be full speed.
