Just try to copy files from any source via Wired Ethernet to an USB-3 or USB-2 attached HDD  using "Primitive FTPD" App to Q5 and you will/can answer the question yourself!

Throughput may be up to 4x higher using USB-3. In fact transfer speeds are even slightly higher via USB-3 compared to Internal SATA with Q10 using exactly the same HD. Also USB-3 Host port support combined with a fast CPU removes the need for the previously commonly used USB-3 Slave port as both can reach true HD drive speed. Very few people used the USB-3 Slave port in practice, despite working perfectly.

USB-3 is not just a port with higher speeds but also uses new drivers which handle data flows more efficiently. It is therefore highly recommended to connect your USB-3 capable HDD's to an USB-3 port and all other peripherals to the other USB-2 ports for an optimal experience (least chance for stuttering and optimal throughput).
