Whats faster for a ipod verbs. Firewire or USB cable?

Is the cable firewire 400 or 800?


Answers:    You'd think that USB 2.0, at 480 Mbps, is faster than Firewire 400, at 400 Mbps, wouldn't you? Because 480 is bigger than 400?

But it's only just not. 480 theoretical Mbps may be faster than 400 academic Mbps, but in the concrete world, firewire 400 is faster than USB 2.0. And when you compare firewire 800 to USB 2.0, there's just no contest.

"Apple states that the USB 2.0 ports on their Macs support verbs rates up to 480 megaBITS per second (Mbps), which translates to 60 megaBYTES per second (MB/s). The most we saw was 144 megaBITS per second or 18 megaBYTES per second.


Think nearly it. FireWire 400 is rated at 400 megaBITS per second (50 megaBYTES per second) -- 80 megaBITS slower rating than USB 2.0 -- all the same when exact same drive/enclosure is plugged into the FireWire 400 port, it goes almost twice as nifty!


You can't blame it on the drive, because, as you can see from the FireWire 800 tests, the drive is adept of transfer rates much superior. Some blame it on Apple's USB 2.0 drivers or the USB 2.0 bridge chips."
