USB 3.0 - SuperSpeed USB


On November 17, the USB Impementers Forum will unveil the USB 3.0 specification during the SuperSpeed USB Developers Conference. This new USB 3.0 specification can deliver 10 times the speed of the current USB 2.0.

USB 3.0 targets fast transfer between media like PCs, mobile gadgets, and other consumer products. Faster transfer rate is desperately needed since most files are already beyond Gigabytes in sizes. Just imagine transferring an HD quality movie from your PC to your mobile storage using USB 3.0. Heaven! =)

USB 3.0 is also promised to be backward-compatible with the USB technologies. Furthermore, it's also expected to be optimized for low power, and to have improved protocol efficiency.

Previously, Intel had been at odds with Nvidia/AMD over the standards of USB 3.0. Nvidia/AMD even said that they'd make their own version of USB 3.0. Good thing they have come to their senses and resolved their differences.

We can then expect the consumer public to benefit from this technology by early next year. Yey! Related Posts with Thumbnails

Can't wait to see the first USB 3.0 products. USB 2.0 can be very limiting in transfer speeds nowadays.
Thanks for the update!
