all USB ports on a computer may not be the same especially in some 2-3 year old models. The front ports are usually slower and the rear ports are the USB 2.0. Mainly its a chipset limitation. on a laptop I really don't know. I don't really hook many things up to a laptop for power consumption reasons.

There are especially 2 variations of usb ports. First got here the USB a million.0 port which became a lot slower while in comparison with the recent USB port version 2. All new motherboards comes with the USB 2 ports. yet to get the max out of it u desire usb 2 units additionally.

They all should all be USB 2.0 and share the bandwidth across all ports. Unless Dell put a front panel assembly that only supports USB 1.2 data speeds.

All USB ports on a particular system will have the same speed because they're all part of the same bus.

All USB ports on the same computer will have the same speed.

I wasn't aware that there was a difference.
Perhaps you should consider a mac.
