will usb reach desktop tower

Depends. If not use an USB extension cable. USB male to USB female. My tower is right above my keyboard on my desk and the mouse is beside the keyboard and no extension cable is needed.

The USB is designed to plug into the tower and then the leads for the mouse and keyboard plug into the USB ports. If your mouse and keyboard leads will reach your tower, then it will easily connect with the USB, making it in fact reach the tower with plenty of room to spare. It is one of the simplest devices to connect. I connected my keyboard/mouse leads into the USB ports, plugged it into the tower and it worked perfectly and still does, 9 months later. A superb little device that allows you to use any keyboard/mouse with another newer tower. Highly recommend it.

I had this plugged into the back of a desktop tower and then the older style ps2 keyboard and mouse plugged into it, so as long as the keyboard and mouse cables will reach it should work fine.

Im not sure about this. but you can try. maybe a wireless usb hub can help you accomplish the job

Yes, you can. The determining factor will always be the operating system. This will work with any Windows based system that supports usb interfaces.

As far as I know the only connections it supports are WiFi and ethernet. The USB is for file sharing.

I don't think so. I have a desktop and had to add a 3.0 usb card. Don't think you can do it wit laptop.Jack

The KB & mouse work off the same USB receiver/dongle, no worries. And it could go into one of the USB ports in the back of your tower, freeing up the front USB port. Good luck, Johnny N.

Honestly, I don't see why not. I need this because of the interface between my motherboard and external connectors that had been broken while moving on my tower. The replacement was an upgrade to USB 3.0. My Tower 7 was years old custom built, but still faster than 75% of the PC being sold today. Worked like a charm and all I have to do is remove this connector when I decide to upgrade. Give it a shot, if not, send it back.

As long as it's desktop, there should be no problem. Just make sure you have available slot

It depends on your computer. My lap top is the same as yours, one usb on each side. For me, this device works with one usb connected. THe second is for power inn the even it does not get the power needed.

Yes, it will work you just need to make sure it's plugged in all the way,simply put you don't want to have any pressure on it likeplugging it into your desktop tower and let it hang. As long as its supported its fine.

I believe that the intention behind the USB ports is to connect external hard drives to add to the available space, not workstations. If, by, workstation, you mean other personal computers, then those are meant to connect via the network.

Yes. I use it now on an E-machines desktop running Windows XP. I plugged into a USB hub on the desk because the signal may be better and my other ports were full.

Nope. Not unless you consider inside your "Desktop" computer a desk top hard drive. It fits nicely inside one of the bays of your tower. The picture shows a 'bare' drive. No Power. At least the one I received.

No it doesn't. In most cases the PC USB supplies the Power. It probably won't work on a USB on a Multible Hub Distribution Center such as ULTRA as an example!If you own a PC older than 6years, there may not bee enough PC power.

No it wont. USB host will provide power to bridge to convert USB signal to eSATA signal. It is a USB device to eSATA host, not the other way around. Meaning it allows to use a eSATA device in USB port of your computer

Yes - I have a desktop as well. I purchased this little guy, plugged it into my tower (USB) and was able to connect wirelessly to my modem. The signal and connection has been great, considering my router is only about 25 feet from my computer. I would recommend this device and buy again if needed.

I haven't had any problems with my unit. Check all your cords and hook up. I had to unhook my usb on the front of my tower, had issues with it on my board!
