The news regarding USB 3.0 is not new to us, its been 14 months that Intel announce it, but the third generation Universal Serial Bus has been hit delay after delay after delay. Anyhow, the said USB 3.0 will be launch next monday at the first SuperSpeed USB Developer Conference in San Jose, CA. This USB is a backward-compatible with the older version like the 2.0. Although if connected to older version you will not get the fast data transfer. Sad thing is, there’s still no official OS for this version, the upcoming Windows 7 does not ship with USB 3.0 maybe the next windows version will support the USB 3.0

The speed?

Let’s say you have a 25GB HD movie:

For USB 1.0 it will take 9.3hrs

For USB 2.0 it will take 13.9mins

For USB 3.0 it will take a f-ing 70seconds!

Now that’s what we are talking about 4.8gb per second transfer! Deym! That’s fast!
