Re: Will USB 2 sockets work with USB 3?

Thanks the video let me know that I'll need new USB headers on my case to support USB 3. It also compared USB 2, USB 3, internal SATA and ESATA for drive interface. It appears ESATA will be a viable choice even against USB 3 which I wasn't expecting.

Where USB 3 is likely to be most helpful is with flash drive technology IMO. On the large file test USB 3 was about 4 times faster than USB 2, on small file transfers USB 3 was about 2 times faster than USB 2. So it isn't quite the 10x transfer increase I was expecting. It was nice to see that he did his homework and used SSD drives that could run faster than either interface specification at both ends (inside the external unit and on the host PC). This excludes the hard drive as a bottleneck.

It was an amazingly helpful video, thank you for finding and posting it.

if you have a sata 3.0 mobo it could be possible to have e sata 3.0 on a case that has a e sata port on the case it self.
