I just bought a new PC, based on Lenovo Legion gaming desktop. It comes with 2 USB port in the front, 4 regular USB port in the back + 1 USB-C port. That’s a total of 7 USB slots.
It’s been like 2 decades that every possible hardware device comes with an USB interface. Keyboard, mouse, joystick, hard-drive, memory stick, headset, webcam, spot/photo camera, and many others.
Of course it’s my fault, I should have thought about USB connectors when shopping for a new PC and check before buying. but seriously, 7 USB slots is so few compared to all the device I have using USB
You’re the one with exorbitant usb needs. That means you’ll be the one who expansions are made for. I don’t have the stats in front of me, but I’d wager the vast vast majority of pc users don’t use beyond 4.
Thinking about this, my Mobo has only 5+c on back panel and I was bit afraid of that. Well, why though? Keyboard, mouse, usb audio and well, that is it. Sometimes I plug in extra usb mic. I don’t have printer or some weird setup, hard drives etc. When I want to connect flash drive, I put it to one of 2 extra slots in front. Same with mobile when I want to transfer something.
