Can I have both USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 ports simultaneously on a PC?

I have a desktop PC with a 4 USB 1.1 ports. Now, I want to buy a USB 2.0 PCI card. Can I add this one too (so that I have both 1.1 and 2.0 ports)? Or do I have to remove the older one?

Yes you can provided you have a free PCI slot available 🙂


In fact USB 2.0 ports will step down to 1.1 speed automatically when you plug in a USB 1.1 device.
