What is the benefits of USB 3.0?

Its almost about 14 years since the Universal Serial Bus (USB) has become the standard interface for connecting various types of devices to a computer like pen drive or mouse, keyboard, external hard drive many more things. This technology has been developed since 1993, three changes have been made.

In 1996 first come the USB 1.0 at a speed rate only 1.5 Mbits/s. After that the USB 2.0 had come in 2001 at a transfer rate of 12 Mbits/s but if you talk about the USB 3.0 it has the maximum, 480 Mbits/s,  came in 2010.

I think you understood the factor that all changes are in the speed.

What is the benefits of USB 3.0?

Apart from the obvious fact, that the USB 3.0 has more than nine times higher speed in data transfer, compared to the USB 2.0, USB 3 provide more power to the device embedded on it and in that sense, it conserves a lot of power when the device is idle.

With a transfer speed of 4.8 GB per second as compared to 480MB per second of USB 2.0, USB 3.0 has a superlative transfer speed and so big volumes of data can be transferred between the computer and other devices within no time. USB 3.0 data transfer speeds are far higher than that of a Bluetooth protocol.

Hi,

This is the best answer for your question.  The benefits of USB 3.0.  At first this device is an external device and transfers data from the USB and can read and write data, faster at a speed of around 3,200 Mbits/s or 3.2 Gbits/s. The power of the USB is increased to 150 mA and then the configured device can be drawn up to six unit loads and can add up to 900mA and then can saves energy from 4.4 V to 4 V only.

The power management of USB 3.0, the IDLE device can limit the power from draining, since the signal in the device is required for transferring a data. The Physical appearance of the USB 3.0 is , it contains four more wires than USB.2.0.
