Intel , HP , Microsoft , NEC , NXP Semiconductors, and Texas instruments have formed the USB 3.0 Promoter group to formulate a new USB spec for next-generation PCs, Peripherals, and digital media devices. The New super speed standard promises to deliver near instant gratification whenever user need to quickly transfer large, bandwidth hungry files, " The digital ERA requires high speed performance and reliable connectivity to move the enormous amounts of digital content now present in everyday life, " said jeff Pavencraft, the president of the USB implements forum ( USB-IF ) - the trade association ultimately responsible for the new specification's development. As the new logical step for the PC's most popular wired connectivity, " USB 3.0 will be available to mountains of digital data at super speeds "while maintaining the ease -of-use experience that user have come to love and expect from any USB technology," Ravencraft said. USB 3.0 will achieve a 10x boost in bandwidth throughput in comparison with present day USB 2.0. In other words , if it takes 10 minutes today to load up and iPod with a wide selection of multimedia tacks, it would only take 60 seconds to perform the same task over a USB 3.0 connection.
