SOYO KT333 DRAGON Ultra - Platinum Edition

Since the south bridge is still based on the older VT8233A, USB 2.0 is supported through VIA's discrete VT6202 USB 2.0 controller. It supports an additional four USB 2.0 ports and they are available as headers on the motherboard. With the bundled EBox front panel, you can route a pair of this ports to the front of your chassis. There's also an additional header on the board which supports USB 1.1, so make sure you make the right connection. Anyway, SOYO made it idiot-proof with color connectors, so it's pretty hard to miss them. Thus, in total, you'll be getting up to eight USB ports - an ideal arrangement for those who plan to use a lot of USB devices.

The EBox supplied with the motherboard is a box which fits into any 3.5-inch drive bay. It's a little different from the EBox which came with the earlier KT333 DRAGON Ultra (black PCB). On this new box, you'll find a pair of USB 2.0 ports, a Type I/II CompactFlash (CF) slot and a Smart Media slot.
