I am working on a project involving putting new hardware into an old case, and trying to keep this on the cheap side.
When I say "old" case, I'm talking about an HP Compaq from the early 2000s.
This USB panel has 14 (13 -- one is covered) pins, however the extra 4 have no connectors, meaning it looks almost like a modern USB 2.0 connector with an extra 2 pins/holes on each side.
I just want to make sure that the wiring is still the same (as in the connectors back then go to the same things they do now. Everything else thus far has proven to stay universal through time.
What the connector looks like:
From the BACK (cables facing toward you)
[ ] [ R ] [ G ] [ W ] [ B ] [ ] [ ]
[ ] [ R ] [ G ] [ W ] [ B ] [ ] [ ]
None, Red, green, white, black, none, none
Red should be POWER, green should be USB-, white should be USB+, black should be GND.
Despite the fact that the motherboard is cheap, I don't want to take chances. Any confirmation is gladly appreciated. Thank you!
