I wonder how the USB 3 works, considering it is drop in compatible with the CM4 which only had USB 2.

I guess "mostly" refers to the "drop-in upgrade", not to the 2-3x faster. The pinout has been modified slightly, so it's not 100% compatible.

Yeah I wasn't too sure about the compatibility, but JG mentioned he was able to just pop it in his NEC Display and it was shown in a blade carrier.
