USB 3.0
Unlike USB 2.0, USB 3.0 technology was introduced since 2007. Excellence lead by USB 3.0 when compared to USB 2.0 data transfer is the speed (transfer rate) which is capable of up to 5 Gbit/s. Wow, almost 10 x folding USB 2.0 right? The other difference is the length of data cable problem. If on USB 2.0, you suggested to add cable length with a maximum of 3 M to keep data transfer speed remains accurate. In USB 3.0, cable length is no longer a factor that affects the speed of data transfer. In addition, the USB 2.0 requires maximum power supply of 900 mA.

Another advantage compared with USB 3.0 USB 2.0 is its full duplex, meaning that USB host can perform send and receive the data continuously. As for the pin plug, pin USB 3.0 has amounted to 5 pieces.
