yes, however certain new instruction that USB3.0 supports will not be backwards compatible. However, most USB 3.0 devices should work in a 2.0 system. To be certified a device does not have to be backwards compatible, so in the end it will be up to the manufacturer of the component as to whether or not they will provide backwards compatibility.

Can you convert usb 1.0 to usb 2.0?
USB 1.0 and USB 2.0 are similar but USB 2.0 provides for a much faster data transfer rate. The USB 1.0 specification operates at 12Mbit/s and the USB 2.0 specification operates at 480Mbits/s Although a 1.0 device cannot operate at 2.0 speeds, the two are compatible. Connecting a USB 1.0 device to a USB 2.0 port or connecting a USB 2.0 device to a USB 1.0 port are both possible. Any device, port or hub that is a 1.0 standard will reduce the data rate to the 1.0 standard. The USB 2.0 specification was adopted in 2001 and most USB devices now conform to the later standard. Older computers may have USB 1.0 ports fitted but will still operate without problems for most applications.
