Is the TPM header for USB 3.0?

The TPM header is for a Trusted Platform Module, a hardware encryption tool. It is not for USB 3 ports.

The short answer is no. TPM stands for Trusted Platforms Module. The two headers look familiar, but are for very different things. If you google "trusted platform module", there is a great description of it by the whatis.techtarget website.

You'll probably need a USB 3.0 specific outlet on your laptop or computer in order to get true 3.0 speed

Depends on the computer/laptop a lot of manufactures like to make the connection blue, or have a special symbol. If you look in your computer management->Universal Serial Bus controller you should see one listed as USB 3.0.

It has been my understanding there is no compatibility issues with USB devises going from 2.0 to 3.0. With that being said all my USB hubs are 2.0, so I have no way of verifying. Wish I could be a greater help.

Yes, all USB 3.0 is backwards compatible with USB 2.0. I thought my comp had 3.0 when I bought this, turns out I only have 2.0. Works great.

No it's pcmcia not usb. And the stupid thing doesn't even work. It's just so cheap that it wasn't worth my time to return it

Correct. As in the description...2 of the 4 USB ports on top are 3.0. Of course, your mainboard will need to have 3.0 headers to connect these to.

I know older models had a cable pass through to a back USB 3.0 port for that. I know there is a version that requires on-board USB headers for USB 3.0. This one? From one of the reviews, it looks like it has the internal headers. I'd like to know for certain though.

It's a USB 3.0 put I would look for other options. SanDisk makes a great one. I just had my second one of these fail already... The first failed after 1 month, and the replacement lasted maybe 5-6 weeks. Extremely frustrated with the quality of the unit.

Next to the motherboard's 24 pin ATX header is the USB3.0 internal header required for this case.

Yes. I have an older hard drive in my enclosure and am running it on a laptop that doesn't have USB 3.0

Yes, this one has. The most recent models of this model number have been upgraded to usb 3.0. But if you get an old model (older stock) they will have only a 2.0 despite having the same model number.

Yes Usb 3.0 needs to have the power pin connected to take full advantage of USB 3.0 speeds.

yea, but their are no usb 3.0 headers on the motherboard, I don't recommend it

It should work with any USB 3.0. You may need to uninstall/re-install the driver with the unit unplugged (not in the USB port).

all USB 3.0 slots are backwards compatible with 2.0 it's not a matter of the card

I can't tell if there is more than one version, but this one specifically is a USB 3.0, which means it does not go into Firewire
