I have a 17R N7110 Dell laptop. One of the USB3 ports has bent pins. Are parts available to replace these?

You can give it a try but its normally better just to get a external usb dock (1 usb -> 4 usb ) sockets as normally if you are using a lot of USB devices your at home/work where mobility isn't an issue.
