ABSTRACT:
A method and system for internally connecting a Universal Serial Bus (USB) device to a computer. An access door, hinged within a computer case, has a USB port attached to an interior of the door. To connect the USB device, the access door is swung open at an angle, the USB device is slid into the interior of the door to mate with the USB port, and the access door is then closed flush with the computer case. The access door allows any USB device, small enough to fit inside the access door, to be removably attached to the interior of the computer, thus reducing the potential of the USB device being lost or stolen.
