But replacing a whole motherboard just to fix a few usb ports?
- marcus_holmes 5y agoI'm no hardware expert, but I gather the USB2 subsystem had failed, and that required the motherboard replacement. Made sense to me.
- admax88qqq 5y agoThat's the downside of such integrated components. The upside is cheaper manufacturing, cheaper less assembly, less power draw, and less physical space.
- lotsofpulp 5y agoGood quality integrated components might have a higher MTBF to begin with.
- admax88qqq 5y agoAlso true
- marcus_holmes 5y agoMeanTBF - I got unlucky, I think
- wott 5y agoUSB hubs and similar I/O peripherals are not integrated.
