Talking about Speed, Super Speed USB AkA usb3.0 has been finalized..... but there’s a catch. A big star with a condition apply to it. Though the universal host controller has been perfected ( PERFECTED!!! when Intel and Microsoft work together the normal word is…..you all know ☺) but the motherboard complaint with USB 3.0 won’t be available until second half of 2009 or 2010.
The naming conventions are …. Hmmmm…. Lets say unique… low speed, full speed, high speed, the usb 3.0 is dubbed super speed…hmmm watch out usb4.0 may be named “OMGWTF” speed.
Well if you are expecting me to give you the design details of USB 3.0 …seriously…. You gotta be kidding me!!!.. There is dedicated site http://www.usb.org/ It covers most of the stuff you’ll need to know or ought to know. It gives the current industry standard specification, white papers etc.
The best part you’ll be happy to know is that USB3.0 has a transfer speed of 5Gbps…..Yes!!! no typos there… but you can achieve a speed of 4.8Gbps…common no one is complaining its 20-30 times more than USB2.0.
USb3.0 has a unique feature.. I’ll use a analogy to explain. If you get it ..good or else , pray for happiness and well being……..USB2.0 uses something like UDP transmission while USB3.0 uses a TCP type transmission. USB2.0 broadcast packet traffic to every device connected while USB3.0 creates a connection link with specific devices..
The Cable length has also increased from 1m to 3m.. a significant improvisation.
USB3.0 standard is backward compatibility.The USB3.0 port looks completely different and i don know how the "backward compatibility" is gonna be achieved.Anyway they claim it is and we'll believe them.
Microsoft 7 will come packaged with USB3.0 drivers. Surprisingly Apple hasn’t announced anything in its developer forum about USB3.0.
One might ask what happen to the FAMOUS firewire…with USB3.0, it doesn’t stand a chance.. come hell or high tide.
