Hi, I was wondering If my MacBook Pro mid-2012 has a USB 3.0 port. I wanted to plug in a 3.0 flash drive. If you could let me know that would be great thanks.
MacBook Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11.4)
I have a mid-2012 13" MacBook Pro also, but the hardware description in "About This Mac" says it's a USB 2.0 bus. Is there a difference from the 15"? Did Apple change over to 3.0 sometime around mid-2012?
Yes, it does.

Yes. They do come with USB 3 ports.

They all say USB 2 initially.
what does it say after you connect a USB-3-capable device?
Does MacBook Pro mid-2012 have a USB 3.0?
