I alot of chatter all over now about USB 3.0 but I have yet to even see a computer with it. Supposedly it has a way faster transfer speed than regular 2.0. Anybody here have something that uses 3.0?

Id expect to start seeing it more on mobile devices and mass storage soon. My desktop supports it. Supposedly E-SATA is about the same thing and its also becoming popular.

My 3 external hard drives are all USB 3.0/2.0 but unfortunately, neither of my laptops or PC is 3.0 compliant. Only 2.0. Wish they were though because it would make loading up tracks while DJing much quicker. The laptop I use at the clubs is only 2 months old too and state of the art, and it doesnt have it. Sucks.
