Hi Jim,
I always meant to ask you about this patch and it's relation to using the
Fractal Define R6 case. I'd been getting a bit paranoid about "too many USB ports" so I started polling the case. I've mapped out what ports do what for my case and I’ve concluded that the HS01 and SS01 connections are attached to a hidden internal USB hub that's glued-in and jammed under the front hood and next to the power switch. Just in case this is of any use to anyone with the same setup: jb provided exactly 15 USB ports. Thanks
@jb007 !

???? @00300000 Red rear bottom USB 3.1 port: USB 3 only? -Maybe not part of the patch’s intended setup?
All ports verified with a USB 2 iLok and a USB 3.0 CF Card reader.
Anyway, it was an interesting "discovery" -ha ha... FWIW, I mostly just run everything off of a huge Xcellon powered USB hub.
