Hello, I received my new PC yesterday and when I opened it and looked around a bit, I realized there was a blue cable that was unplugged (I don't know what it's called but it has 19 tiny holes and 1 blocked) and following it I saw that it was connected to a blue USB port which logically wasn't working.
Could you help me because I don't know much about this and I don't know where to plug it in, I assume it's a USB 3.0 or something like that.
Thank you for your help!

Without wanting to get ahead of myself, you usually need to connect this cable to the motherboard, a cable that is normally connected to your disk drive, if I'm not mistaken; in any case, it's the only cable I would see before so many holes.
Good evening,
are you talking about this socket?

This is a USB 3.0 socket to have it in the front panel.
If this socket is disconnected, check where it connects.
You can't make a mistake; this socket has a notch (there's only one way to connect it).
It must have come loose during transport.

It's a cable like this one https://sgcdn.startech.com/005329/media/products/gallery_large/USB3SPNLAFHD.B.jpg
(in the photo, there are two cables, but I only have one) and it wasn't unplugged during transport. I think it's unplugged by default because it's tied with several other cables and far from the outlets.

Kevloux is right, it's an extra "socket".
In fact, the PC probably has 2 USB 3.0 ports at the front, but since there's only one port on the motherboard, we inevitably end up with one extra port.
There you go
Have a good evening everyone
