It depends on the type of ports needed. If you need more USB sockets, you can simply plug a USB hub into a USB socket. However, if you need other types of ports (like display ports, network ports, 9 or 25-pin serial ports, SATA sockets etc)., or you don't want to use a USB hub, then you would have to install an expansion card.
