There is no need to turn off your computer before connecting or disconnecting a USB
device.
The Kensington Portable Memory Card Reader is a USB 2.0 device. If you plug the read-
er into an older USB 1.x port or hub, Windows XP will display a warning message:
The Unknown USB Device is a HI-SPEED USB device and will function at reduced
speed when plugged into a non-HI-SPEED port.
Close the message window to continue. The reader will work with a USB 1.x connec-
tion, but it will operate at reduced speed (a maximum of 12 Megabits per second, com-
pared to 480 Megabits per second maximum with USB 2.0).
