The USB port is a high-speed port which allows you to connect USB
peripherals, such as a mouse, an external keyboard, additional
storage (external hard disks), or any other compatible device.
You can also charge devices such as tablets, smartphones, or other
devices through a USB port. Some USB 3.0 ports support charging
devices when the computer is in Hibernate or turned off. Additionally,
you can use a USB hub to connect multiple devices to a single USB
port.

Two USB standards are currently available on Gateway computers: USB 2.0
(High-speed USB) and USB 3.0 (SuperSpeed USB). USB 2.0 ports on
Gateway computers have a black tongue in the port, while USB 3.0 ports
have a blue tongue. For best performance, USB 3.0 devices should always
be plugged into USB 3.0 ports. Consult your device’s documentation to see
which standard it supports.

USB icon in the Windows task bar and select "Eject <device>" to tell the
