how many internal usb ports do you have. usually most motherboards have (2 frontal, two rear bracket).

Get a USB hub. Mount it internally.
 
I thought we could buy an extension and each port will turn into four. The length is about two feet.
 
Your best bet is to get the PCI card. A hub will give you another 2/4 ports

I'm new at this and have only found one internal on boad. The motherboard is and Intel D875PBZ. Am I missing something here?

Most motherboards that I know of have on-board headers - once USB ports are plugged into these headers, they become functional. The USB ports on the case interface with these headers.
