# whats the difference between all of these?

# USB 1 didn't really supply enough power to power anything
USB 2 is faster throughput and supplies sufficient power to power hard drives and stuff.

# usb 1 - slow
usb 2 - a bit less slow
firewire - faster than both

i have usb 1 ports, and usb 2 devices, so they run too slow to work properly

# firewire is faster is it?
shit... i just bought a new harddrive and went for usb 2 because i didn't know what firewire was

# USB is a safer bet and usually less hassle to set up if you're a bit of a n00b.
If you get fancy and have Firewire 800 then it's an imperial fuckton faster.

# how much bigger is that than the metric fuckton?
(I helped save b3ta! Tom OBedlam I have control of a tank, Sat 29 Mar 2008, 22:27, archived)
# 1016.0469088 kilograms = imperial fuckton
1000 kilograms = metric fucktonne


This is actual fact of real ton types

# USB 2 runs at 480
So unless you have Firewire 800, USB 2 is faster than the standard Firewire 400. But you probably knew that.

# In reality it doesn't, though.
If you have two devices connected to your computer it's only getting 240.
USB is bus powered, Firewire isn't.

# You can run a USB drive on USB 1.
You need the special cable that uses two USB slots.

Or you can buy a PCI card for a few quid and have the wonders of USB 2.

Data transfer rates would be shite though if you choose the first option.
(I helped save b3ta! Quijibo Esq. BSc. May contain traces of nuts, Sat 29 Mar 2008, 22:19, archived)
# well yeah, it's the transfer rate that's the issue for me
trying to use a usb2 device for an itunes library for an usb2 ipod on a mac with only usb 1 means it's rather shonky
(I helped save b3ta! mictoboy shitting in your cunt since, Sat 29 Mar 2008, 22:22, archived)
# I'd recommend buying a USB 2 PCI card and slinging that in there
and buying a cheap USB hard drive.

Probably still be cheaper than a Firewire drive.
