About USB on Mac
Your computer may have USB ports 
that let you easily connect external devices, such as a keyboard, mouse, trackpad, printer, iOS or iPadOS devices, or a digital camera, without needing to restart your computer. The USB ports provide some power, so most devices don’t need their own power cables. You may be able to purchase adapters that let you connect non-USB devices to a USB port.
Note: Your Mac may also have one or more Thunderbolt or USB-C ports. See About the Thunderbolt ports or About the video ports.
USB devices and Mac laptops
If you have a Mac laptop, USB devices can cause your computer’s battery to become depleted faster. If you plan to use the device for an extended period, it’s a good idea to connect the computer’s power adapter.
Disconnecting USB storage devices
Before you unplug a USB storage device while your computer is on, eject the device by dragging it to the Trash.
Connect multiple devices
You can connect more than one device to a USB port by using a USB hub. Connect the devices to the USB ports on the hub, then connect the hub to the computer. Most USB hubs have a power adapter and should be plugged into an outlet.
Be sure to connect USB 3.0 SuperSpeed devices to a USB 3.0 SuperSpeed HUB, USB 2.0 Hi-Speed devices to a USB 2.0 Hi-Speed hub, and so on.
