After a long time Intel announced USB 3.0, the final protocol specification were announced. The third generation of Universal Serial Bus has been delayed. Only several months ago, nVidia, AMD and a few others threatened to create its own USB 3.0 if Intel doesn’t share the controller specs with them on time. This fortunately didn’t sidetrack the effort to deliver USB 3.0 on time as both sides quickly reached an agreement. USB 3.0 supports 4.5Gbps data transfers. Using USB 3.0 we can transfer a 25GB of data within 1 min.USB 2.0 takes 13 minutes to transfer 25GB where as USB 1.0 takes over 9 hours.
