For those who might not get it, every laptop that I’ve had has had two usb 3 ports on the right side, with other I/O like HDMI or headphone jack, and then one USB 2 port on the left side with less io, just the power jack.

      I heard it always serves a dual role, maybe I’m wrong but usb 2 was for mouse/keyboard and if installing operating systems that had usb 3 issues. I always heard this was the way back when and the philosophy just followed forward?
