Home computer use means constant self- tutoring. The tutor shares a couple of clues about detecting a usb 3.0 port.

I’ve heard that usb 3.0 ports are meant to be blue inside. However, I’ve also heard that some usb 3.0 ports may not be marked blue.

Next to the port, the letters SS can also mean that the port is usb 3.0, even if not blue inside.

Some computers have both usb 2.0 and usb 3.0 ports. Apparently, a way to tell if usb 3.0 is present or not is to go into System Information, then Components, then USB. As I understand, USB 3.0 suggests its presence.

HTH:)
