USB 3.0 Another Successful Story in 2009, 10x Faster

USB-connector.jpgOne of the biggest inventions in the computing industry is the USB technology that changed everything we knew about connectors because it replaced the serial and parallel cables that didn't offer speeds. Then USB 2.0 arrived and everything changed because we got to write with up to 480Mbps.

But things changed since the USB 2.0 and we now have much larger files from digital cameras or video recorders, not to mention a HD movie, so how does 10 times faster sound? USB 3.0 will be able to transfer files up to 4.8Gbps and should be available in stores in 2009, with the specs being released early next year (2008). All I know right now is that it will use the same connecting format and will provide better power efficiency for better load on portable devices.

With all of us screaming for better internet connections with faster speeds, more storage capacities and so on, I am sure this will turn out to be another great success in the USB series. What do you think?

Great, gonna have to get sucked in once again to buy another upgrade. Feel like a pawn in the economic game. Why couldnt they just come out with the high speed the first time?

That's a stupid comment. Just like USB 2.0, it's backward compatible. You're not going to have to buy another upgrade. Your older USB items will still work. And like USB 2.0, it will take a few years to filter down before a majority of new devices are 3.0 only.

As for "why didn't they just come out with the high speed the first time": do you really need an answer for that? It's called *technological improvement.* It wasn't *possible* to do 4.8gbps before. It's possible *now*. Or would you rather that technology didn't get better over time?
