Hey, check out www.intel.com/pressroom/archive/releases/us101299.htm (http://www.intel.com/pressroom/archive/releases/us101299.htm) . Usb 2 is coming and it is fast!!!
The fastest current interface speed I could find was and FC-AL Fiber Channel: 100-400MBYTES/s. And we are talking 480 mb/s! Am I excited? YEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!

Hmmm... that probably means that once it is released, 2 on the motherboard inside will be as common as 2 ATA/66 connectors on the motherboard, probably more. Looks like USB will totaly be killing everything else, even the fastest SCSI controlers, handling over 160mb/s. Looks like I will be waiting another few months before I spend my cash, I need to wait for motherobards with this internal, and for the hard disks.

I beleive Firewire is less than 400mb/s, they were on 386 macs, but you never know.
