USB 3.0 promises 10x speed increase
 

The USB 3.0 Promoter Group has unveiled full specifications for the next-generation USB 3.0, or SuperSpeed, interface standard that is expected to make a splash in the coming years.

Promoters expect USB 3.0 to be up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0, which is currently used in the majority of computers and laptops today. The technology will be backwards compatible, so the devices can still be plugged into USB 2.0 ports, but will not operate at USB 3.0 speeds.
