Overall

Jumping to USB 3.0 isn’t something you want to do all at once typically, even though the performance increases are well worth it. The cost of USB 3.0 devices is still at a premium, but picking them up as you need to replace different components is highly recommended, as I did. Like I mentioned before, in the end your performance is only as good as your weakest link, but you might as well be prepared. USB 3.0 isn’t going anywhere, if you aren’t considering them now you will be kicking yourself soon enough when your new USB 2.0 flash drive has you waiting an hour to transfer files to and from it. I for one welcome our new USB 3.0 overlords! Of course with thunderbolt starting to make its way into PC’s, how long before we start looking to it for even better transfer speeds.
