Doesn't make any difference. Either of the USB ports are fine for a thumb drive. You can buy thumb drives that have both connectors ..different ones at each end. Or just buy a converter cable.
I personally only use the port in the centre console with the thumb drive connected to the C port via a short extension cable. Minimise and damage to the port that way.
If you use the port in front of the cupholders, buy the smallest physical size thumb drive you can find so that the folding lid will still close
