Find the Best USB Technology Made Life Easy

The evolution of Universal Serial Bus (USB) has made life easy. It is easy to connect a personal computer to various other devices and peripherals. You can connect USB drives and USB cables to transfer data to and from various USB enabled devices. You can connect your PC with printer, modem and external hard drive to transfer data in a seamless manner. The USB cable is built upon twisted pair cable which will carry the data. The USB cord also includes power supply and ground wire.


The quality of data that can be transmitted between PC and other peripherals is very high. Even since the USB technology surfaced in 1990s, the technology is growing at a steady pace offering high speed data transfer with every new advancement. As a matter of fact, USB cables are easy to connect and disconnect. You can carry easily from one place to another place. You can connect the USB cable while the device in switched on and it is convenient to remove them as well by closing the device. USB 1.0 is the first and foremost in getting the breakthrough into a new kind of technology. It was released under low as well as full bandwidth versions.


You can achieve data transfer rates of 1.5 Mbps with low bandwidth versions of USB 1.0. The maximum data transfer rate is 12 Mbps with USB 1.0 full bandwidth version. Hub and connection related issues were addressed with the release of USB 1.1 version. With USB 2.0 there is significant improvement in the length of wire that can be used. You can use a USB cable to transmit data up to 5 meters with USB 2.0 version. USB 2.0 is also called as high speed data connection as it can transfer 40 times more than the initial USB version. With USB 2.0, there is room for change in size and shape as well. A maximum of 127 devices can be connected through USB 2.0 version.


USB 3.0 can transfer data at rocket speed. You can expect data transfers up to 5 GB per second. The main advantage with USB 3.0 is that it is fully compatible with USB 2.0. You can get maximum performance from USB 3.0 if the length of the cable used to connect the device with PC is less than 3 meters. Firewire is another kind of cable widely used by Apple and Sony. This cable gives you the flexibility to connect at a maximum distance of 4.5 meters. The data transfer rates that you can expect are up to 3200 Mbps. You can connect to a maximum of 63 devices under this new technology. Firewire which follows IEEE 1394 standards is a reliable cable for data transfers at higher speeds. These cables are widely used by various companies to transfer data at a very high speed in real-time. Thunderbolt cable widely deployed by Apple is a cable made of copper. The cable allows data transfers to the extent of 10 GBps. You can connect a maximum of 7 devices with thunderbolt and the length allowed is up to 3 meters.

Find the Differences between USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 Desktop External Hard Drives


The present world is crazy for the devices with high speed as speedy technology has become the core of the world. With advancements in everyday life, everything people wishes to be of hyper speed whether it’s iPhones and computers or iPods and internet. 


More Storage Capacity in USB 3.0
Those days have gone when a 3.5-inch floppy disk with 200MB storage capacity was considered to be enough but now people love to have external hard drives for their desktops with storage capacities of 1TB to 3TB and still crave for more space. For more storage, now the USB technology has emerged in the market to satisfy the quest of the people for faster transfer speeds and more storage space.


The USB technology was first introduced to the public in the '90s which brought drastic change in the way people interacted with their computers. Not only this, it also made ‘plug and play’ a reality for people which certainly added to the convenience of the people as well.  
After a decade, keeping pace with the fast growing technology and the people’s craving for more speed, the USB Implementers Forum, Inc., the same group which had introduced USB launched the new generation USB called as Super Speed USB 3.0.


Drastic Increase in Data Transfer Speed
With the introduction of USB 3.0, the data transfer speeds have increased drastically from 480MB per second to 4.8GB per second. With this speed, you can load thousands of files in your desktop external drive even in mere seconds. Undoubtedly, the Super Speed USB 3.0 has taken speed to an altogether new level and much higher than the speed offered by USB 2.0.

Change in Power Capability
In the usage of USB 2.0 and USB 3.0, there is not only huge difference in the transfer speed but also the power capability which has drastically increased from 100 milliamps offered by USB 2.0 to 900 millilamps provided by USB 3.0. So, one can charge four devices in the time which was consumed to charge a single device with USB 2.0 technology.
However, the best part is that the increase in power has not led to any kind of decrease in the power efficiency of the device as USB 3.0 easily recognizes an inactive device and stops seeking data from it. For example, if your computer goes into sleep mode while a desktop external drive is plugged to it, the change will be automatically detected by USB 3.0 which stops its connection till the computer comes back from the sleep mode and powers up again.


Difference in the Number of Connector Lines
The difference in USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 technology can also be viewed by the change in the number of connector lines. USB 2.0 cables transferred data with the help of four connector lines in which two were used for in and out data transfer, one for power and one for grounding. Now, the number of connector lines has increased with SuperSpeed USB 3.0 with the addition of five more lines in which four aids in speed and two are dedicated for data transmitters. Apart from this, the other two left are used for handling the received information.


Bi- direction Data Transfer Possible with USB 3.0
The best benefit of these additional lines is that it has made bi-directional data transfer possible which allows the drive to read as well as write content to your desktop external hard drive together. The addition of more lines has certainly made the USB 3.0 cable look thicker than USB 2.o cable.
Though there are various products available in the market with USB 3.0 technology however, the number of products and the usage of this technology in various electronic devices is expected to see a steep rise in the coming years.

Best Axis browser Launched by Yahoo Search Engine!

Yahoo has plans of diversifying its business into the browser era with the launch of the Axis browser. Though till now it had supported the versions of I phone along with I pad as well as desktop browsers. In the words of E. Batraski who happens to be the head of products at yahoo the primary purpose of such a model is to eradicate the middle stage in the designing of web. In the normal case one enters their query and the results display and then he has to click on that query. But with this one tends to skip this stage and goes from directly the query to the results. The tedious job of going through a season of links is avoided on all counts. Overall this browser tends to work very well in all situations and provides the perfect launch tool for the company on all counts.


One of the most influencing factors is that the company yahoo in terms of revenue generates close to 2 million each year from the search results. In fact a lot of that money tends to be involved in the second stage of the process. With the Axis browser there are no search results of any time involved. When one types any search what they get majority of the time is a set of horizontal results whereas in some other cases what happens is that a box is displayed on the side of it. It helps us in a lot of ways as the page which we are looking is there and one can click on it. In a normal way one can pull the page from the top to the bottom or to scroll the pages one can also remove the finger in a way so that the pages change automatically.


In the overall scenario one needs to be absolutely clear with what is expected from the search results as all these are integrated into the browser. In general terms the ads will be automatically integrated in the search engines and the mechanism has really won a lot of hearts. In present terms what the Axis browser does is that it drives away the bulk of the traffic of Yahoo from the domain of the search engines. This is all the more concerning that the company finally began to find the space after the slide in the last quarter of the year.
