Re: USB 3
Yes, thank you. I was just hoping to avoid opening the box - its a good half an hour :) operation.

Re: USB 3
Konstantin, This is exactly what i was looking for - how to identify if I have usb3 wo taking the box apart.

Do you have ports that are blue? Are there ports which are labeled SS. If you have neither (like this Thinkpad t540p) all you can do is plug in a USB 3.0 device and see if you get USB-3.0 speeds.
